How do I know which DLL's I need???

[Laura2]

I'm receiving the error below when running my asp page on Microsoft server 2003. It runs fine on our old server.

Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01ad'
ActiveX component can't create object.

I checked past posts and although this issue is there it doesn't say how to find the answer. It says I'm either missing a dll file or haven't registered it but is doesn't say which one. Does anyone know?

Thanks a bunch.

Laura.

I don't have access to the server right now since I'm at home but it's a CDONTS command that's trying to send mail.

what server do u have? CDONTS will work only on a Windows Server system (or if u have manually managed to get the Dll)...

Known is handfull, Unknown is worldfull

CDONTS is not installed on Win 2003 You can hack it to make it run, but recoding to use CDOSYS is a better option.

So the DLL for Windows 2003 Server that would enable CDONTS isn't automatically there and registered? I have no idea how to hack the code to make it work. I was hoping I could just get the proper DLL's and register them.

Thanks for your help.
