oleaut32.dll

[Samy]

I wrote an app that is supposed to run from CD. I used VB6 and it works fine __ on my machine.
The Problem : VB6 apps require oleaut32.dll ver.: 2.40.4275 (584 KB) located in C:\Windows\System in order to work. Most machines with Win 95,98.. have by standard an older version of the .dll after Setup so that my program wouldn´t work. Do you know a way / patch solving the problem so that the user won´t have to deal with errors like "oleaut32.dll out of that"

Does the same problem occurs using VB 5 or 4 ?

Thank you for any suggestions !

From experience I've had more luck running VB5 stuff 'raw' but this is only because it was designed to run on earlier versions of OLEAUT and OLEPRO files.
PCs with Internet Explorer 5 installed will run most VB6 stuff straight off so you could just make that a requirement of your CD.
