Runtime error 5003

[jmc1712]

Hi,

I just did a program using VB6 and a friend of mine keeps getting an error 5003 after splash screen finishes and loads main form. He has installed a different program I did and it installed fine and he gets no errors except with this one. Its a simple program that reads a text file. I had him install updated VB6 runtime files and that did not work.

Another friend of mine installed it with no problems and both are using Win 98 OS.

Any help would be appreciated.

Welcome to the Forums.

Did you create a Setup package? If so what packager did you use? Also,
what are the OS' that work and what are the OS' that dont. 98 and NT have
different kernals so they would behave differently.

Hi,

Both my of my friends are running Win 98 Systems and I used the Inno Setup Compiler which was used to do setup for the 2 different program which is why I am stumped as both programs pretty much use same DLL's/Ocx's
so if one works the other should too I woudl think.

Not necessarily. It depends on what the computer has installed and what your
program requires (what dependencies your app uses).

jmc1712,

Take at look at this information for your dll/ocx/exe installer problems

I checked out the page but could not get to the universal VB files mentioned there so it was of very little help.
