Default PdfDistiller Error

Try a Google web search: "Run-time error '429'" distiller adobe pdf

I only looked at the first hit and it would imply to me that it was
not installed for all users but only for the person who installed it.

Anyway there were 11 hits
Now there will be 12. One of the problems of suggesting search arguments
for Google. So at least post back what your solution turns out to be.

I wonder if having macros turned off would also do that, and then
since Active-X was mentioned could be a security setting.

I have a process that automatically creates PDFs using Acrobat Distiller.
Recently, I got a new computer and since then, the process has not been
working.
When it tries to create a new PdfDistiller:

Dim myPDF As PdfDistiller
Set myPDF = New PdfDistiller

I get this run-time error:
Run-time error '429'
ActiveXcomponent can't create object

I can't figure out what the problem is. The reference is made to Acrobat
Distiller.
Please help.
Thanks.
