Help,

I have created a SQL Database which opens and works fine on any PC with VB installed. All aspects of the program work on PCs without VB except for one.... When the program tries to assign a fieldname to the DataField of a TextBox/Label etc, whether the fieldname has been assigned at design or run time, the system returns the error:

Run Time Error '545':
Unable to bind to Field or Datamember : 'FieldName'

Again, I will stress that this only occurs on PCs which do not have VB installed.

All of the required Driver files have been loaded onto the PCs, and the MSBIND.DLL has been registered. I have also loaded SQL Client onto the PC and set my server as the only named pipe. I have even setup a DSN Pointing to my database. But I still cannot seem to locate the problem.

Any help would very much appreciated.

Thanx

Maybe a trivial question, how did you deploy your application on the machine that had no VB? Did you make an installation package or just copied the whole bunch manually? If the latter is the case, you could have missed some required items, then you should redeploy using an installation package (use the setup tool). If you did install from a package then we need to think further...

Thanx pardede,

Your solution worked. It just did not register in my head that I might need to perform a full distrubtion. Strange though, I really did think I had registered everthing I needed.

Nevertheless, Thanx for your help,
