[AccessD] Missing library?

Gustav:

When you switch from one version of Access to another on the machine that
has them all installed, do you get that "Installing..." message and the 1-2
minute delay?  I get that when switching from 03<-->07.

Hi John

DAO350.DLL and DAO360.DLL should not be referenced both. In fact I thought
they even couldn't.

Tell the tech kids, that all versions of Access can be installed on the
same WinXP machine juxtaposed - I have from A2.0 to A2007. However, A95
will not run if you have 1 GB or more ram installed (error: Not enough
memory).

Alright...so A97 and A07 WILL play together?
 
I left about a half-hour after my last post, because I had to get back to
the office. But, it was on my mind last night, and I swear I must have
dreamt about it, because I was pretty convinced, when I came in this
morning, that it was an issue between these two versions. I remember
reading a bunch of posts, complaining about similar issues. And,
personally, we could NOT get my A97 to work, on my PC...my PC was "redone"
by our technicians, while I was off w/my knee surgery, and I needed several
versions of Access installed. They got 07 and 03 to work together, but for
A97 we needed to setup a virtual drive, on my PC.
 
Everything was fine w/this program, before a couple of our younger techs
went into this department and swapped out 4 or their 5 PCs. The program
still works on the one PC that wasn't touched. So, I had them in my office
this morning, and I asked them, along w/their supervisor, if they could
"dial these PCs back" and remove 07. I requested that they put A03 and A97
on the PCs instead.
 
I may run over to see these clients this morning. It is only about 1 mile
across town, and it'll get me away from my desk. So I can check the order
of the references, according to what you've provided. I don't remember
exactly all that was loaded, but I was having problems changing the
priority of them...it only let me do so much.
 
The top three, if I am reading my notes correctly, were "Visual Basic for
Applications" (VBA332.dll), "Microsoft Access 8.0 Object Library"
(MSACC8.olb), and "Microsoft DAO 3.51 Object Library" (DAO350.DLL), and it
didn't seem that I could alter this order at all. Further down the list was
"dao360.dll," and I'm wondering if this is the 3.6 that your talking
about...but, I couldn't move this up any higher.
 
This program has been a PITA to me...it was written by an "external"
programmer and he didn't follow my rules. Also, he "protected" it and I
keep running into road-blocks.
 
I've been doing another job, for the past couple of months...we had a
person leave and I inherited their duties, so I've had little time for
things like this. So, I don't have a bunch of time to devote to this
problem...if I don't fix it by lunch, I'll probably have them blow one
away, put it back to scratch, and see if the problem disappears.
