Hi Diana,

at my knowledge the VSFLEX3.OCX is an active x compound that's installed
with Microsoft project. If it isn't used in your access application you just
can unchip the reference in the VB window (Tools -> References). If it's used
and missing you'll have to install it as an add-in. Be sure it's correctly
registered in the registery.

That only works AFTER the component is registered. Which is done
using:
regsvr32.exe <path_to>your.ocx
