Activex Component Run time error

I am learning how to use ActiveX Components and I can't get pass a Run Time
Error 424 "object required". Below code is from a Macmillan Computer Publishing
book.

...add the following procedure code:

Public Property Get AddressText() As String
Dim s As String
s = txtName & vbCrLf
s = s & txtStreet & vbCrLf
s = s & txtCity & vbCrLf
s = s & txtState & vbCrLf
s = s & txtZip
AddressText = s
End Property

I have a typical project group consisting of the ActiveX component itself
plus a test project (a Standard EXE project). I ran the project, added data
to the components, press Ctrl+Break, then Ctrl+G and type print AddressCtrl.AddressText
but the property never gets called. I added option explict and it still
didn't work. Any help would be appriecated.

Hello, I am suspecting that you should declare that 'S' at mudule level.
