Get Access Object References Via VB6

S

SHB

Hi

I have a slight problem. Our business is currently
deploying Office 10 to the company, unfortunately there
are still quite a few users that use Access 9.0 at this
stage and any apps that I deploy still contain the Office
10.0 object references and I am having to manually go in
after eash install and change them back to the 9.0 ones.
What I am looking for is some way of writing a VB6 exe
that will run after the Access DB has been installed and
change any Office 10.0 references to the Office 9.0
equivlent.
Any Suggestions?

The proper and simplest thing to do in this situation is to distribute your
app with the Office 9.0 reference...not 10.0. That way the reference gets
update, if necessary. Or use late binding instead of the reference, if
possible.

Nonsequitur....you're deploying to users within YOUR company that have
Access/Office 2000 and you don't have the ability to compile your app in
that version? You can't do this in VB...reference changes require that the
Access app be open.
