Okay, I have Visual Studio 6.0 Enterprise Edition, and I have had it installed once already. I accidentaly had it Uninstalled, and now I am having trouble reinstalling it. When I reinstall it, and try to run it, I get the message "Can't find file 'DAO350.DLL' " I don't know what I should do. I did a search on my computer on DAO350.DLL, and a file was found by that name. I copied it and pasted it into my Visual Studio folder, then when I try to run it, It says "Error: Closing"

What should I do?

You probrally found DAO350.DLL in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\DAO. This is where it belongs.

Make sure it is there, and run regsvr on it.

First unregister it by inserting this into your command line...
regsvr32 /u "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\DAO\DAO350.DLL"

Then registeer it by inserting this into your command line...
regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\DAO\DAO350.DLL"

Nope, In tried this, and it does not work. After doing this, and I try to open Visual Basic, I get the message "Unexpected Error; Quitting" What should I do now?

When you ran regsvr32, did it give you a message box that said it succeeded"?

Previously you said you moved DAO350.DLL, to a Visual Studio folder. Did you make a reference to it in your project while it was there? This could cause a problem as such.

Try starting a new project and adding all of your forms, modules and classes you have in the original project to the new one. Then make a reference to the DAO350.DLL that is in the "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\DAO" directory.

When you highlight a component in the Add References Dialog Box, the path to that file is shown at the bottom of the Dialog Box. Make sure you add the right one.

Lets see...When I ran regsvr32, a message box did come up saying that the procedure was successful. As for the DAO350.DLL, it is no longer in my Visual Studio Folder. The only place that it is located is in "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\DAO" And I cannot start any new projects. I can't even open Visual Basic. It is when I open the actual program that the Error comes up.

What should I try now?

When I re-install Visual Studio, the Error message I recieve is "Setup was unable to create a DCOM user acount in order to register "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\Tools\VS-Ent98\Vanalyser\Valec.exe" What does this error mean, and how do I fix it?
