[AccessD] Microsoft Update June 2026 - Strange Issues With VB6 Com+ Objects

[Jim Dettman]

Just glad to hear you found a solution.

It's getting tougher to find things related to older technologies, or anyone
with knowledge of them.

Jim.

Com+ Objects

Thank you to all that responded, my apologies for not supplying enough
information.  We did however get to the bottom of the issue, we had a
series of bespoke VB6 COM+ applications in the "COM+ Applications" folder.
We have had to remove them from there, until Microsoft come up with a fix
etc.

Thank you so much to the people that respond, I don't usually take this
long to reply, but I've been working so hard trying to figure out what was
going wrong with our application.

Thank you once again for your replies, this list has been an amazing source
over the years and the people on here are just fantastic.
