Question : vb6 running in an XP SP3 VM unable to run ADO library commands
I have created an MS Virtual Machine with XP SP3 to compile and make changes to old VB6 applications.
Everything is installed. When I bring up the first application in VB6 Enterprise I get an error on the ADO commands. Im getting a 'Compile Error: Cant find project or library' and it highlights the first SET xxx = New ADODB.recordset object. The project references have Micorosft ActiveX Data Objects 2.8 Library selected which worked on previous compiles.
I have taken the exact same code and compiled on an old XP SP3 workstation with no problem. I have tried downloading the old MDAC 2.8 and 2.8 SP1 but they will not run on this version of the OS(?).
I thought this was a pretty standard strategy for supporting old VB apps. What am I missing here?
Thanks. Larry.
