Randem Systems Support Board

randem,
Thanks.  I have attached a zip with the executable code and the .iss file.  Also, I'm curious about the other error one of my users had with the MSVBVM60.DLL error in the second post of this thread.  Thanks for your assistance.
Nick

BTW: What does your iss script look like? Please post it.

npudar,

MSSTDFMT.DLL is part of the MDAC and should therefore be installed. There are smaller versions of the Automatic OS Updater but they are OS specific. Look at https://randemsystems.com/os-updater-support

More detailed information on the original post: teh actual error message is:
 
Run-time error 713
Class not registered
You need the following file to be installed on your machine: MSSTDFMT.DLL
 
Thanks for the help in sortingthis one out.

Another user just reported that with his Windows XP Pro, he got the following error message:
 
C:windowssystem32msvbvm60.dll
An error occurred while trying to replace the existing file:
Delete file failed; cod 5.
Access denied.
 
I'm suspecting that the Auto Updater is going to be required.  Again, if there is a simpler version ofthe updater that does not need the full 32M, I'd appreciate your advice.  Thanks.

I recently compiled a new installer file, and one of my users has indicated that he is using Windows XP and is getting an error message regarding MSSTDFMT.DLL (a link error).  I realize this is one of the unsafe files.  I also use XP, but do not have this problem when I install -- I'm sure it has to do with versions, etc.  Is there a quick way around this?  Or do I have to use the Auto Updater?  I do not use any database functionality, so I would like to avoid the full 32Meg installer if I could.  Do you have any suggestions?  Thanks.
