problems with msjtes40.dll on win11
in my VB6 app, i use VB6 PDW for installation. no problems over the years. recently however some users are getting error on PDW installation regarding "error occured while registering msjtes40.dll". i understand that this is because win11 has now deprecated this file and replaced with ACE db access engine. my limited development is done on winxp machine, so i can't install ACE as included with PDW?
i would prefer not to modify PDW routine.
what is the easiest way for me to ensure that my DAO3.6 program will run on my users new win11 machines?

This file is already installed by Windows, you don't have to include it with the installer. And you can't replace it because it is protected.

Thx for reply - OK, that makes it easier if it is installed with all win11 set ups. It was my understanding that the DAO access engine files (ACE) were only installed if the user had installed “MS Office”. if the required ACE files are always installed by windows, then I should not have to worry?

The DAO that uses VB6 (normally ) is not ACE but uses the Jet engine 4.0.
The DAO version is 3.6
This one is the one that comes installed by Windows.

Thx Eduardo. So, can I just remove the “msjtes40.dll” file from my PDW list?

It really doesn't matter. You don't need or have to replace it.

it seems that file msjtes40.dll is required with win7, but is NOT installed with default windows 7 install? so don't i need to include in my PDW install list so that win7 installs will be ok?

It is part of Windows since Windows XP.
