5547 Error: TDAT Demo: VC++6 installed

[jgrogan]

Hi all

I am trying to work out why my TDAT demo cannot 'see' my VC++6 installation (for use in Stored Procedure compilation).

As far as I can tell, VC++6 was installed in very standard way, so I can't think why the SP compilation process would fail to find it.

Assuming that some registry key is used to determine the presence/absence of VC++6, does anyone know what key it is?

Failing this, is there a technote (or similar) describing the prerequisites / requirements for SP compiliation to work?

Wishing I had a debugging switch...

Many thanks
James

Hi James,
V2R5 is looking for following entries:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\6.0\Setup]
"VsCommonDir"="C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\\Common7"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\6.0\Setup\Microsoft Visual C++]
"ProductDir"="C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\\Vc7\\"

The values above are for the .NET Framework compiler, you just have to adjust it to point to VC dirctories...
