Thanks to Ken Hamady for working through this problem with me. A dll had been left out of my install script. I used a free package Dependency Finder to locate the missing dll. EFSADU.dll.
Additionally I had to unregister and register 4 dlls:
ExportModeller.dll
crtslv.dll
crxf_pdf.dll
mpr.dll...
My application is in VB6. I prepare distributions with Wise Install Master. Exports in pdf format work for some of my users but not for others.

Still using 8.5. No problem exporting when Crystal is installed. But when using in a distributed application and attempt export pdf format to disk (or to MAPI) page selection displays, then nothing.
I must be missing something to include in my distribution?

The thread "Is Vista ready for Prime Time has had very good responses. My conclusion is that it is if you are ready. Some of the responses dealt with what is necessary to be ready.
Anyone else with info on getting ready?

Steve,
Thanks for your thoughful and thorough reply. And I'm glad you have had such a positive experience. I expect you are totally right about our not being prepared for Vista.

Well, in my original post my customer was running Vista Home Premium on an office LAN with Windows Server 2003 server. I upgraded them to Vista Business. Now our application will not even load. So I reinstalled the original Vista Home Premium and our application runs with only one minor...
My customer has boght a couple of new notebooks with Vista Home Premium and installed them on a business LAN using Windows 2003 Server.

This application has a single customer quote appearing as a Crystal preview. It needs to be viewed on the screen by the user for correctness before faxing to the customer. So some interaction is required. If I could provide for the fax phone number to be automatically obtained from the...

We are a small shop with deep experience in VB6. The choice between Java and VB.Net for us may be heavily influenced by having been a captive of Microsoft. If we start over with VB.Net will we be faced in the future with starting over with something else? Not to mention the regular steep...
I started a contract programming business 29 years ago rather than look for another corporate job. Ups and downs along the way (currently recovering from a major down).
Finding a killer app is a long shot. My successes have come from finding owners of smaller businesses who needed my...
I am also looking for a suitable development environment for Pocket PC. Microsoft wants you to use the ,Net environment but I'm a VB6 programmer.
Take a look at AppForge at www.appforge.com/.

I'll post my results here.

I am an experienced programmer in VB6. I'm looking for suggestions for books, web sites, etc. to get a rapid startup on a project involving downloading data from a Windows workstation on a LAN (using VB6) to a Pocket PC with Windows CE.
Are there packages that will compile VB6 source for...
I just got this email. The sender is identified as Microsoft:
Dear friend , use this Internet Explorer patch now!
There are dangerous virus in the Internet now!

Is this legit - or could this be a virus?
