Broken reference to crystl32.ocx file

I created an Access 2003 database application and sent it to my client and
after he installed it and opend the mdb file, he got the following error
message:

"Your Access database file or project contains a missing or broken
reference to the file "crystl32.ocx" version 5.1"

I did some research and found out this file is for crystal report option
with Visual basic. So how to we go about it?

Thanks

If you're not using Crystal Reports in your database, uncheck that Reference
from the database and save it. Then send it to your client.

If you are using it, then your client does not have that ActiveX control
object on his PC, and will be unable to use the Crystal Reports features.
