MSADO20.TLB Registration Error 1

[JSUAlumni]

While trying to run the setup program after running the package and deployment wizard, I get just about finished when I get the following error:

C:\winnt\system32\MSADO20.tlb
Error while registering the file

Anyone know how to fix this?

You probably need to upgrade to SP5. If you ignore that error (instead of abort/retry) and your app works perfectly, I almost guarantee that's what the problem is.

Hope that's it!

Right now I'm running service pack 6a.

The P&D wizard sets up MSADO20.tlb incorrectly. The line will appear in your setup.lst file as:

File17=@msado25.tlb,$(WinSysPath),$(DLLSelfRegister),$(Shared)[color],7/26/00 8:31:16 AM,81920,2.60.6526.0

It should be:

File17=@msado25.tlb,$(WinSysPath),$(TLBRegister),[color],7/26/00 8:31:16 AM,81920,2.60.6526.0

The difference is in the "$(TLBRegister),," portion. Edit your LST as required and it should run fine. These examples are for ver 2.5, but it should be the same for 2.0.

You do not need to distribite TLBs. This is a library needed at compile time, not run time. It is a known problem wirth the PDW.
