Hi guys, (and girlz)
I installed ADO 2.6 by accident and it seems not to be backwards compatible with ADO 2.5. Now my problem, our RD-team develops in ADO 2.5 and i get one error after another.
So i was hoping that someone could tell me how to uninstall ADO 2.6
Thanx
what BC issues are you having - this is very strange there should be no interface problems with going to 2.6 from 2.5.....
We use an 3 tier type application ASP -> VB-Bussines layer (DLL) -> VB-Data Layer (DLL) -> SQL Server 7.0
and we use a dynamic Data layer this means components are created when needed.
And now we get type mismatches everywhere when using ado 2.6 when we run on a machine using ADI 2.5 -> no problem.
so, i can asure you there are problems.
I invite you to come and spent a day here and you'll be convinced there are.
Doen't anyone now how to uninstall ado 2.6, or how to downgrade to ado 2.5 ???
can you debug the type mismatch error? or tell me what method is causing the type mismatch...
(I don't disbelieve you by the way, I just thought MS had this one covered - obviously not...)
Hello Dave,
following links show the files included in mdac2.6 & mdac 2.51
deleting all files which are in 2.6 and reinstalling 2.51
will probably do the trick...
(no guarantee !!! back up first)
