A client of mine was installing a VB6 app on his NT4 box and got the following error in the install log:

*** ERROR: LoadLibrary() failed while registering file 'C:\WINNT\system32\msadox.dll'
*** DURING THIS ACTION: DllSelfRegister: "C:\WINNT\system32\msadox.dll"

Anyone knw\ow how to overcome this (or if it's even a problem)?

Thanks,

Jeff
 
That usually means while attempting to register that .dll file, an error occoured. Usually, it means you had something open while doing an install OR the .dll file didnt exist.

More so, it's likely a user or workstation issue, not a VB problem...
 
Thanks, ErroR, but There is nothing open at the time of install. He's pretty experienced and he swears this is correct. I'm thinking it might have something to do with MDAC, so I advised him to get the latest and greatest ver from Microsoft's site.
