I have taken over a dll that uses an MSGraph.Chart.8 OLE to display
data. After being distributed to clients, a handful have reported
errors with the dll. I have found that the error occurs when trying to
reference the chart in the dll. Since it only happens on some
machines, and some clients have it working on one machine but not
another, I believe the problem is a missing dll or type library. What
is needed for MSGraph.Chart.8 objects to be created, and where can I
get it?

Thanks for the respones. Is there any way to distribute the dll I need
without installing Office? This is for a number of client machines,
I'd like to do this without making them install Office, perhaps this is
just wishful thinking.

No, I don't think so. This is a licensed control, and copying just the
control to the client machines will violate your Microsoft licensing
agreement.

What version of Office is required for MSGraph.Chart.8? I have one
client who says he has Office 97 installed, and is still receiving the
error.

Shouldn't I be able to use a runtime license to distribute the dll I
need? I would think that installing this dll would include all the
references it needs to run.

The answer is found in your Microsoft Office license agreement. Read it
carefully. I'm sure you will find that the MSGraph.* controls are not
redistributable.

I am not a lawyer so you don't need to trust my word. I'm simply forewarning
you that I believe it is illegal to install the MSGraph.Chart without a
Microsoft Office license in hand.

You may also buy the Office Developer kit, Which I believe will allow you to
redistrube the dll. I had the same problem with mscal.ocx. I didn't relize
it was an office product and NOT redisturble, without the office developer
license
