richtx32.ocx

[Jatin via AccessMonster.com]

At my work users with ACCES runtime installed are using ACCESS 2002 DB on
server. Just recently they are getting following message when starting an
Access 2002 database on their PC.

"Your database or project contains a missing or broken reference to the file
'richtx32.ocx' version 1.2."

How do I resolve this? I need ugrent help on this issue as it is affecting
work.

If you're actually using that control (which I believe lets you display
RTF), make sure that it exists on the same location on each client's machine
as it does on the developer's machine. You'll need to use regsvr32.exe to
register it on each machine as well.

If you're not using it, go into the VB Editor, choose Tools | References
from the menu bar and uncheck the reference to it (it'll be one of the ones
at the top of the list).

If you don't know whether or not you're actually using it, you can uncheck
it from the References list, and then compile your application (first choice
under the Debug menu while in the VB Editor) If you're using it, you'll get
compilation errors when it's removed from the list.

Thanks for your reply. I am not sure how I can get to VB editor on users
machine when they don't have full version of ACCESS installed. They have only
ACCESS runtime installed.

Thanks

You shouldn't need to get to the VB Editor on the user machines.

What I was suggesting is that you "fix" it on your development machine
(i.e.: remove the reference if you aren't using it).

If you found that it wasn't actually required, you'd then simply
redistribute it to all users.

On the other hand, if it is actually required, then you need to follow the
first part of my instructions ("make sure that it exists on the same
location on each client's machine as it does on the developer's machine.
You'll need to use regsvr32.exe to register it on each machine as well.")
