I have a VB6 dll that is trying to create a COM object using the following line of code:

Set CreateObj = CreateObject('OPSValuer.OPSValue') 

However this fails with the error ‘Object variable or With block variable not set’.

I can see OPSValuer.OPSValue in dcomcnfg and it appears to be registered fine. Does anyone have any ideas about what may be causing the problem?

    DMKing is right about OleView. Also try looking at the control in Dependency Walker, any missing dependencies should come quickly to the surface.

    Since this is a DCom component there also may be something failing in the components constructor, if anything fails in the constructor you will get that error. Is this a local DCom object or something running on another tier?

    Instead of CreateObject try instantiating it with a standard New and see if it gives you a different error. Adding the reference itself may help out with determining that error. Is there a reason you are using late binding, rather than early binding?
