Can't run vb6 after Windows upgrade [RESOLVED]

[Supremus]

Last night I logged on to the windows 98 Updates and downloaded 2 files:

Security Update for Microsoft Data Access Components 2.8 (KB911562)
and
Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 6 Service Pack 1 (KB912812)

Now, when I try to run mu program I get Runtime error 429. ActiveX component can't create object - in this line

Set ConCustomer = New ADODB.Connection

I tried re-installing VB6 and it reported that it couldn't install msdasql.dll and a few other dll files.

I have logged back into Windows98 updates but could find nothing there to help me out

I Googled KB911562 and found (in part) this --

System Requirements
Supported Operating Systems: Windows 2000 Service Pack 4; Windows XP Service Pack 1

which suggests it isn't for Windows 98.


I tried using regsvr32 but received the message shown in the attachment

I have customers who have received this same error after the MDAC update. I am also very interested in the resolution.

I reinstalled vb6, Dcom98 (not sure if that is needed), all the upgrades I could find, MZ tools and Smart indenter.

I removed all components that VB would let me and had to copy a couple of OCX files to my program directory.

I am now back in business, but not exactly sure what fixed it. I fired a shotgun and something hit something.

Glad to hear you are up and running.

I hope Microsoft posts a resolution soon, because I have customers running Windows 98 and they are receiving the error.
