Hi Peeps,
I have a VB6 application which has been deployed all over the UK and works well. For some reason I have installed it on one particular PC with Admin rights and that works fine but if you log in as a standard user I get msadodc is missing or not registered.
Can anyone shed any light on this one please,
Thank you,
Jiggy!
are you sure you installed it for "All users who use the computer", and not only for current user (admin). Some installation-sets ask this question

Appologies HACK, did not see the Application Deployment Thread. It will not install as a standard user because they dont have registry write permissions. My guess is that the registery info is in a more secure part of the reg and not in the common????
Did you deploy the MDAC or did you rely on it being there already?
It was weird because we gave a normal user admin rights; did the install and it worked; rolled the users right back and tried it and it failed again; gave user admin rights; did install again and did a repair; rolled the users rights back again and it worked.
Did you answer the question?
I relied on it being there as it is deployed with XP SP2.
That is your fatal mistake. NEVER rely on anything being there, well not if you want you app and installation to work 100% of the time. Less than 100% is good for some but not me...
Thank you mate for all your help, which version should I include in my MSI is it 2.8 and what would happen if it was already installed?
