MTS and P & DW

by afisher . Updated 24 years, 6 months ago

I have an application with VB forms at the front end, a COM DLL registered in MTS on a server as the middle tier and an Access 2K database on the same server as the back end. I have never used MTS before, so I?m not sure that I?ve covered all of mybases.

While creating an installation package for my client, I receive the following message:

Missing Dependancy Information

Below is a list of files for which dependency information could not be found. To proceed without the dependency information for the file(s), click OK. To permanenty mark a file as having no dependencies, selects its checkbox.

The files listed are CompDataServer.dll (my middle-tier component) and MSWORD9.OLB. I use the MS Word object model in my project. I am not very familiar with dependency files, so I?m not sure whether or not I need to create any for my project.

After I install the client package on a client machine and run it, I get the following error message:

Run-time errror ?429?:

ActiveX component can?t create object

The error occurs when I click the Submit button on my security form, which runs code containing the first instantiation of a class from my component. I have the DLL referenced in my project references and I included the client configation executable in the package, which I exported from MTS using the component export utitity. Thanks in advance for any help that you can provide!
