ADO is NOT working Correctly in a Run-Time Version

G

George W. Jackson

Hi to all.


We have a Microsoft Access 2002 database that is referencing the ADO 2.5
library (as well as the DAO 3.6 library). On the development machine, the
database works exactly as planned and all functions compile and work. When
the database is packaged as a runtime version, and installed on another
machine, errors occur relating to the ADO library, such as the DATE()
function no longer working. (Yes, ADO is being installed as part of the
package!)

Now, here is the odd part; we can put the database on a machine with a
full version of Access and the same ADO errors occur, but if we un-reference
ADO and compile the modules, then re-reference ADO and compile again,
everything starts working correctly. We have checked the order of referenced
libraries; have tried the ADO 2.7 library; nothing seems to make any
difference. We know it is somehow related to ADO and have checked and
installed the same versions of MDAC on the various machines (all of which
are running Windows XP Pro). What are we missing and as a work-around in the
meantime, is there any way to reference or un-reference libraries under the
runtime version of Access.

We are in major need of help, please. I would greatly appreciate any help
that is given.

Sincerely,



G. Jackson
