Suppose, I'm using many .ocx and .tlb files in my VB6 program that are not provided by Windows. Now, If I want to run my program in a PC where these files are not present, should I have to install and register both these types of file to be able to run my program or not.

Answer 1

You will have to distribute the OCX files. However, you probably don't need to distribute TLB files, unless you are using remote COM or passing a User Defined Type from that TLB file via a Variant parameter.
