Missing or broken reference

C

CD Tom

I've just starting receiving an error message on my application about a missing or broken reference to the file "msador15.dll" and can't figure out why. The application runs on some computers and not on others. I compile the application and send it out with the access run time. I've looked in the references but can't find any thing about this msador15.dll. Hopefully someone out there can lead me in the correct direction
Thanks for any help

Tom,

It is a missing reference. Specifically the MS ActiveX
Data Objects Recordset Library. This file is part of the
MS Data Access Components - MDAC.

You need to figure out which version is on the machine on
which the app was developed then install that version on
those machines on which it does not work.

There is a MDAC checker program available from MS and
there are various versions of the MDAC. Go to the web
site:-
http://msdn.microsoft.com/data/downloads/updates/default.as
px#MDACDownloads

There is also a comprehensive write up on MDAC's etc.

You may need to consider distributing the MDAC
(MDAC_TYP.EXE if I remember rightly) with your application
in future.

Good luck
