Hi All,

When I install a VB.net application program, I got error 1904 - "Fail
to register msowc.dll". I try to register msowc.dll manually, get
failed too. Could some one give me some suggestions? I am running
windows xp operating system.

Thanks a lot in advance!

run the depends utility (available with visual studio) on the msowc dll to
find out what problems there are with dependencies first. Chances are, there
may be some other dependices causing problems that you need to address
first.

open depends and use the file browser to find the msowc.dll. When it loads,
it will build a color coded dependency tree. Any red colors in there
indicate a problem.
