Thread: missing dll ?

  1. #1
    Guest
    I have created an exe for a program which uses data reports
    (vb 6). The exe works fine on any machine with vb 6 installed. When I try it on a machine without vb it loads the forms etc. but returns with an error as soon as I try to generate the report. Could this be due to a missing DLL?
    Thanks

    Dll

    Could Well Be.

    Especially if you have just banged the executable on to a different computer.

    If you use the package and deployment wizard to create a setup program this will include and register any dll's when you run the setup on any computer.

    Wizard

    Open the project you want to create a setup program for

    Goto the "Add-Ins" menu. and select "Add-In Manager".

    From the list that appears select the Package And Deployment Wizard.

    I am also having the same problem. I can run my vb app on the development box and it works fine. My vb app uses the DataReport object. If I run this app on another box besides the development box it gives an "Invalid Data Source" error everytime I try to access the data report. I am running on an NT 4.0 platform.

    I ran a program called FileMonitor. I was able to find the missing DLLs. They are: dbprenu.dll, dbrpren.dll, dbrpenu.dll and dbrpr.dll.
    I can't find these files on the devlopement box nor on Microsofts DLL help site.

    Does anybody have any suggestions????

    Thanks,

    Chris
