HELP: "VBAJET32.DLL Failed to initialize..."

Bob Rafus #1 / 6	HELP: "VBAJET32.DLL Failed to initialize..." OK, I'm stumped. All of a sudden, whenever I try to open the Books Online option from the VB5 (SP3) IDE, I get an error message saying something like "the library VBAJET32.DLL failed to initialize - please try re-installing the application". I've tried re-installing VB and SP3, but I STILL get the error. Has anyone else seen this? Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this? Any ideas on how to fix this? Any help would be appreciated. Bob.

Some of my program are developed by VB5 and use the JET data access engine. Before I install VB6 , everything are OK. After install VB6. If I run the VB5 setup wizard to make a installation of my VB5 project with database function. The program will fail in the target machine just like your case. It should be the VB5 setup wizard just update the "VBAJET32.dll" and do not know it is a new version. The problem solved by using the VB6 setup wizard to make installation program but it is not necessary to recompile the project by VB6. The VB6 will install all necessary components, so that the final progam can work on target machine. Jacky Kwok

Axel Gunnlaugsso #6 / 6	HELP: "VBAJET32.DLL Failed to initialize..." As mentioned in the messages in this group I tried to solve this problem according to MS Q&A but without success. I was however able to fix this problem by running the data-access 2.0 setup file available on the VB6 CD. This file is "Mdac_typ.exe". If you, as I, did install VB6 over VB5 and then uninstalled VB6 and reinstalled VB5 then this fixes the problem. In my case Mdac_typ.exe always asked for a cabinet file. In order for the exe to run you must supply the cap file to your project in the same directory as the exe. ....I know!, CAB file generation comes with VB6, but before uninstalling VB6 I ran the distribution Wizard that came with VB6. Thats how I had the cab file to my project on disk. This mix-match way is not a great way to solve this, but IT WORKS. Axel Gunn Quote: >>After install VB6.
