Getting BDE to work after using Install Shield to Install My App
G'Day All, I have used Delphi 3 C/S to write an app to access a MS Access 95 database using the NATIVE MSACCESS driver. I then used Install Shield Express to create an install. So far so good. However when I install the application on another machine that does not have Delphi or Access 95 on it then I can't get it to work. Here is what I have done: - Installed Ap - Copied MSJT3032.DLL onto machine (into folder where application is installed) as it was looked for by BDE - Copied DAO3032.DLL into C:\ and changed the Registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\DAO to have the Field: "Path" and the VALUE "C:\DAO3032.DLL" (As per Borland). I have modified no other registry keys. However I still get the error IDAPI Service library could not be loaded C:\DAO3032.DLL with the DataBase name that I assigned in my application (I am using an alias to a BDE alias and then my own internal alias in my application ie value of DatabaseName) when my application runs or when I double click on the alias in the BDE. The BDE error returned is 8458. Can anyone please help me??? I am desperate here. TIA. Appreciate the help. Please CC the e-mail address below. --Donovan junkm...@smartnet.co.za
