Error 50003 Help Plz!!!

[Jigabyte]

Hi Peeps,

This is only happening on Windows 7 and Windows Terminal Server 2008.

I have a VB6 SP6 application and the first thing in the Main sub it does is load a splash screen and then a standard form with a list control, picture control and two command buttons.

It loads the splash screen fine but when it trys to load the company form I get the error 50003. The code to load the form is :-

frmCompany.Show vbmodal

If I create a new form and show that instead it works fine so I removed all the code and controls from frmCompany but I still get the error. Can anyone please help, I don't understand how a new blank form works and my existing form stripped down to nothing does not.

Thanks for any help,

Jiggy!

Wow; I have managed to get passed this error and I thought I would share my results with yourselfs. It turned out to be an invalid icon for the frmCompany form so I removed it and it runs passed that form.

However when I come to load a form with a truegrid on I am getting msadodc.ocx is not correctly registered or missing.

Any ideas please?

Jiggy!

I think your msadodc.ocx is not correctly registered... or it is missing

Check the references for your project, is it listed as registered?
If it is, is the file where it says it should be?

One idea and one question.

1 Regarding failed registration, ensure you registered it with Admin privileges. There are several related, recent posts regarding your question. A simple search including the word Vista or Windows 7 and your error code should give you some results worth looking at. However, most will agree that the ADODC control is not very good (for lack of a better word) and you may want to do a quick google/topeka to see if it is even supported on Win7.

2. About that form icon. I am so curious. Could you post the icon that caused your original error? I'd surely like to download it and take a look -- more for my own curiosity than anything else.
