dynamic link library IMPLODE.DLL could not be found in the specified

[zclv05]

Greetings,

VB5/VB6, Win95/WinNT4

I have been getting following errors while installing VB apps. The same
setup sometimes installs without any problems, but sometimes it gives
problems. Most of the times the setup is not able to register the Crystal32
OCX and one of my DLLs (2, 3 below). As far as Implode.DLL is concerned, I
do not know what it is used for, as, after this error my app was running
without any problems.

1. The dynamic link library IMPLODE.DLL could not be found in the specified
path C:\WINNT;.;c:\WINNT\System32;c:\WINNT\System

2. An error occured while registering the file
"C:\WINNT\System32\Crystl32.ocx"

Please help me by giving pointers.

Thanks

Maybe the files are being used by another application during your setup routine.

The implode.dll is used by the Crystal report run time engine and must be a dependency that is part of your Package and deployment wizard. Thus check that implode.dll is in the setup.lst file (along with crpe32.dll and crystl32.ocx).

The error that occurs on some machines may be due to the fact that anothe aplication is already using the DLL in shared mode when you are trying to install your application, as vbrocks mentions.

Hope this helps

I too had experiencd this problem
but I gave another setup for Crystal reports
and asked user to run that setup too
and solved the problem

But then two setups are required for same package
not much good isnt it
