MSAccess and datacombo box on network 1

[Bhavna13]

Hi,

I've been having this problem for a while now maybe you guys can help?

I am using a MS ado datacontrol in vb6 to create my connection to an access2003 database. I then use a datacombo box that binds to this control in order to get the values that populates this list from the database. This all works fine on my machine where i created and compiled the program. I have included the relevent ocx files into my project. This entire project resides on a network drive. When i try to run the exe from any other workstation on the network the combo boxes simply dont populate. But it works when i run the exe from my workstation. I have tested the connection to the database and it was successful.

HEEEELLLLPPP!!! I really need to get this working off the network.

Thanks.

Bhavna.

You need to create an installation package which will get all the dependencies and sort out all the registration issues. Just remove the .exe from the installation pack and point it to the network copy once you've done the installation on each workstation
