VB3 App New Err

 VB3 App New Err

Suddenly started getting "File not found" error messages in an app that's
been working for many years.

Running it in VB3 stops loading and highlights declarations to Database,
i.e. "Dim tUpDateDB As Database". The word "As" is highlighted.

This also happens in the VISDATA sample program where "Global gCurrentDB As
Database" in the general declarations is highlighted. "As" is again
highlighted.

What file have I lost or has been overwritten?

Any help would be * tremendously * appreciated.

Regards,
John

You are not the only one - I have the same problem as you have, and Error
#53 comes up every time as any database-related reserved word is used, and
run in the VB3 environment. Older compiled executables also stops with the
same error message. All files are in their place, and as old compiled
executables behave the same way, there can't be any problems with the
VB.LIC-file.
Any bug that Microsoft know about (they withdraw their VB3-support just in
time...)? Anyone else who knows what, and what to do (incompatible
DLL-files?)?

Best regards,

Hans

Hans,

Someone was kind enough to email me directly with a solution: if I was using
an Access 2.0 file, I should check if my VBDB300.DLL file (\Windows\System)
was overwritten by an older file.

In my case the opposite had happened... I required an older version.

Regards,
John

Thanks:-)

It was a VBDB300.DLL-problem! The original DLL-file was overwritten by a
newer one(date: 1994-04-13) that was the maker of my headaches. Thanks for
your help!

Best regards

Hans
