 How to install .dbf isam drivers with vb4 16 bit on win 3.1

I developed a program for win 3.1 written with vb4.0. In my program i
have to save a .dbf archive, under win95 there is no problem, but when i
try to install the program on win 3.1 the system is non able to find the
16 bit dll that drives .dbf isam drivers (the .dll is in the
windows\sytem but i presume there is some .ini file initrializaztion to
do).

Thanks in advance

Look up "IniPath" in the VB help files. (Or lookup "SetDataAccessOption")

This should explain what you need to do. Basically - you need an .ini to
tell Vb what ISAM .dll to use.

Plus on a Win 3.11 machine the necessary dll's might not make it
intothe proper INI file - I have to cut/paste to the msacces.ini file
form another (sucessfll) install - If you need the proper lines - I
could email them.....
