VBA Groupwise Email - vba

Question

I'm using Excel 2013, Windows 7, Groupwise 12.
The code should be pretty straight forward, but I keep getting an error
"Active X component can't create object"
I've made sure the references are there according to the Groupwise's development documents which is simply their "gwcma1.dll" and I just can't figure out what is going on.
Theory right now is that Groupwise was installed some way that didn't populate the registry information needed for the code to create the object even though it is in the object browser.
Code:
Dim gwAccount As GroupwareTypeLibrary.Account2
Set gwApp = CreateObject("NovellGroupwareSession")
I've used this code for years on older versions of excel and windows and groupwise, and I can't figure out what has changed.
---EDIT---
Here's the beginning part of the code. After this is just standard loops and logic that all works.

Sub EmailPDFs()
Dim i, k As Long
Dim PhysicianCount As Long
Dim StartPoint As Long
Dim CurrentNPI As Long
Dim CurrentEmail As String
Dim CurrentFileName As String
Dim CurrentFilePath As String
Dim CurrentDate As String
Dim EmailBody As String
'Declaration for Email
Dim gwMessage As GroupwareTypeLibrary.Message2
Dim gwAccount As GroupwareTypeLibrary.Account2
Dim gwApp As GroupwareTypeLibrary.Application
Set gwApp = CreateObject("NovellGroupwareSession")
Set gwAccount = gwApp.Login()
---EDIT 2---
I tried Application2 and still the same error. I think I was trying the older one and the properties were the same on the object, but Application2 let you do proxy email access which I wasn't worried about.
For creating a new application, I may need a refresh on the syntax but I'm assuming you're suggesting something like:
Dim xlApp as Excel.Application
Set xlApp = New Excel.Application 'Early Binding
Set xlApp = CreateObject(“Excel.Application”) 'Late Binding
