When looking for file stdole2.tlb (this is the reference for OLE Automation), I found 2 entries for it:
1 with c:\Windows\sysWOW64 and 1 in c:\Windows\sysWOW32, so i checked ifi had a folder c:\Windows\sysWOW32 and did not find one.
Maybe this is screwing up my graph with an error 2737 OLE file missing.
What do you think?

Re: sysWOW32 in registry
Are you sure that it said sysWOW32? As far as I know there is no such folder, nor should there be one. The default folder locations for stdole2.tlb on a PC with 64-bit Windows are C:\Windows\sysWOW64 and C:\Windows\System32.

Re: sysWOW32 in registry
By the way, if the registry really refers to C:\Windows\sysWOW32\stdole2.tlb, you could try changing it to C:\Windows\System32\stdole2.tlb. I have no idea whether this would solve your problem, but it won't hurt.

Re: sysWOW32 in registry
You are quite right, it is system32.

Re: sysWOW32 in registry
That's reassuring, but it also means that we still don't know what causes the problem...
Best wishes,
