I am running VB6 using DAO (3.6). In doing some testing, I un-registered DAO360.DLL and registered DAO350.DLL on my machine and started up my VB project.

I then un-registered DAO350 and registered DAO360. Now, I can't even get into my project since it says it can't find DAO350.DLL and refuses to start the project.

Please help if you how I might get back to where I was with DAO360.DLL registered and the project running fine.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Check to make sure VB is seeing the proper dll under the Project/References menu. You should be able to determine which dll is registered and select the one you would like from there. If you choose to battle wits with the witless be prepared to lose.

Thanks for your response but since I can't even start the project, how do I check the project/reference menu?

Am I missing something here or is there something along these lines that I can do?

Thanks for your help, David Abineri

 
Try un-registering both the dlls, then move them both from the root system(32) folder to a temp folder. Then copy just the DAO 3.60 version back to the root system(32) folder and just register that version. You may also want to search your hard drive for duplicate dlls as you may have the same dll in several locations. If you choose to battle wits with the witless be prepared to lose.

You can find which version is in Project/References if you open the .vbp file with Notepad
