Unhappy Runtime Error 430 in installer

I'm just a beginner in this thing, not a profesional, and all my programming knowledge is limited to Visual Basic.
I did this small program for a friend. It uses an Access database.
I generated the installer, but the program does not run properly in his machine, and is giving me an error in the most sensitive area: the conection with the dababase (an mdb file). When the program tryis to reach, record or extract information from the mdb file, just crashes and sends me this error message
"Runtime error 430. Class does not support automation or does not suppert expected interfase"

Acording to the Microsoft Developer web site, this error appears "when a proyect type of an Activex server is changed from DLL to EXE and recompile". I don't know how that applies to my project. Is it because I worked the original project at my office, in a computer conected to a server and I am trying to install it in a stand alone computer?
I will try to review the code tonight at home, in a stand computer. To si if gives me the same error.
If somebody over there has an advice that can help me, It would be apreciated.

Is this a visual basic 6 program or an Access program (all the code and
forms are in the .mdb)? Are you using Automation (creating an Access
application object) and controlling Access through its object model? If
so, what version of the Access object library did you reference and what
version of Access does your friend already have installed?

This is a project in Visual Basic 6.0 profetional edition.
To conect to the Access data base I use the Microsoft Activex Data Objects 2.5 Library. I just use the Code to generate the commands (you know, I create the connection, a recordset), instead of using the Activex wizard.

Open your references dialog and see what version of ADO object library
is checked. If it is less than 2.5, you need to get mdac_typ.exe 2.5 and
you should verify that you have service pack 5 for your visual basic 6.
