Missing library

F

Fjordur

Hi,
Hope this is not off-topic. I have this Access app that works fine on 2 out
of our 3 PCs. Back-end on the server, front end copied on each PC. On the
3rd PC, on opening the switchboard or whatever executes VB code, the user
finds himself in the VB windows with the following error message:
Compile Error
Can't find project or library.
with a call to function "left" hilited in the code. In the "references"
item of the "tools" menu, the "dtcint 1.0 Type Library" is labeled as
missing, while it's not on the 2 PCs that are OK. I'm not at all familiar
with this.
I take it a library is missing on that PC, where should I get it from? How
do I install it? Can anyone help?

If the library is not being used in your application, you can just uncheck
the box next to it under Tools | References. The compile (Debug menu) to
make sure everything still works.

If it is needed, you may need to track down where it came from. If it is not
a commercial library, you may be able to just copy it to the problem
computer, and register it as described in the article above.

To identify the library, go to a computer where it works okay, and open the
Immediate Window (Ctrl+G). Enter:
? References(3).FullPath
and try with other numbers in place of the 3 until you identify the
particular file you need to copy.
