The reference might appear to still exist, ie not MISSING, but did you try
to use it. I'd be surprised if you didn't get a "failed to load object"
warning if you had one of the controls on a form. Try this (Excel)
For Each rf In ActiveWorkbook.VBProject.references
Debug.Print rf.Name
Debug.Print , rf.fullpath
Next
It might return the Name (simply stored with the ref in the file) but what
about the path?
Reading through this thread perhaps I'm wrong but I thought the more common
VB6 dll's & ocx's were bundled with W64 and installed in SysWOW64. That said
issues about them not being properly installed seem to crop up regularly.
