Class Not Registered Error and other weird things

[Falcondl]

I recently made an application, packaged it up with the file distribution thing included with vb6, and sent it off to some friends...

For some friends, everything works fine, but for others, they get a "Class not registered" error...
What causes this? i've never had this problem on my machine...

and also, some of them get type mismatch errors when the program starts up, but others do not. I've never had any of these problems! Why are they showing up on other peoples computers??? Am i overlooking something obvious?

I'm still getting this error...

no one has any ideas? =((((((

I've tried repacking multiple times and still nothings working...=(((((((( this is a nightmare.
work so hard on this, only to have some screwy errors that are nearly impossible to track down

Ditto,
I'm a beginner also in Visual Basic. I share a common situation as yours. I have developed a program, which installs and runs on my computer. But when I install and run the program on another computer, which does not have Visual basic 6 installed, I get the same exact "Class not registered - Looking for object with clsd:{00000010-0000-0010-8000-00aa006d2ea4 " message. If you happen to find out what this means, please email me at [email protected]. Also it does not matter how small a program I write, It will not run on any other machine. Part of me wonders if I'm supposed to include some "special" support file when the project is being packaged for deployment.

You can search for the classid in the registry to see what component that error is giving

Elfman:

The main DAO engine is not installed or registered....

Assuming your app was installed correctly with the DAO runtimes, run this line at the command line to fix:

regsvr32.exe "c:\program files\common files\Microsoft SHared\DAO\DAO350.DLL"

Your paths may vary.....
