Failiure to Compile MDE!!

[camidon]

I'm getting the following error when trying to make my MDE:

There was an error loading an ActiveX control on one of your forms or reports.

Then something about making sure all the controls are properly registered.

The only control that I am using is the common dialog control and it is properly registered. I'm not really sure where to start troubleshooting this, so any boost in the right direction is better than the empty toolbox that I'm working with now.

Thanks in advance,

Chris

If you are using Access 97, try unregistering and then re-registering the file dao350.dll.

This can be done using the regsvr32 and regsvr32 /u commands.

We had an error that was Active X related (although not exactly the same error) and this fixed the problem.

Unregistered and reregistered the dao file and still get the same results.

Also tried a compact and repair, and that didn't help either. This thing just won't compile at all. Any more ideas?

Have you tried opening on of you forms in VBA, then click on debug, and compile your database. The compile should stop and point you to your error that is stoping you mde compile. Also be sure you are using the Option Explicit ing any modules or befor any code. This will help pinpoint your error.

This is an outside chance this might help. If your mdb was on one machine and you moved/copied to another machine. There could be items referenced on the first machine that do not exist on the second machine. Open a Module in design mode and go to Tools/References. Merry CHRISTmas.
