Microsoft Access database dll

[orangeco]

I am accessing a Microsoft Access database from a Crystal 8.5 report. If Crystal is installed on the computer the report runs. If Crystal is not installed (the report runs from within an application) the error message is 'CANNOT FIND DATABASE DLL', but it does not indicate which DLL. Any suggestions to what this DLL may be?

Not sure is this applies to you but you may want to look at this article:

A Microsoft (MS) Visual Basic 6 application is using the Crystal ActiveX (OCX) control to preview and print a report. The report is connecting to a MS SQL Server 7 database using OLEDB.

When the application is run on the client computer, the following error message appears:

Error "20532 Cannot locate Database DLL"

The application works correctly on the development computer, but why does this error appear on the client computer?

Solution

This error message appears because Msvcp60.dll has not been distributed to the client computer.

Resolve this error message by including Msvcp60.dll as part of the runtime distribution package.
