SYMPTOMS
The Redistrb.wri file shipped on the Visual C++ 4.0/4.2 CD number 1 (in the MSDev\Redist directory) implies that the Racmgr32.exe file can be run with the following four files:

Autmgr32.exe

Autprx32.exe (misspelled in documentation, should be Autprx32.dll)

Racmgr32.exe

Racreg32.exe (misspelled in documentation, should be Racreg32.dll)

If Racmgr32.exe is run on a system where Visual Basic 4.0 or Visual C++ 4.0/4.2 is not installed, the following error occurs:

A required .dll file VB40032.dll, was not found.



CAUSE
The Redistrb.wri document doesn't mention that the Visual Basic 4.0 run- time dependency files are also needed. Racmgr32.exe is a Visual Basic 4.0 application, which needs the Visual Basic run-time dependency files. Without these run-time files, an error will result.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem you need to distribute the following three sets of files:

Core Files
Autmgr32.exe

Autprx32.dll

Racmgr32.exe

Racreg32.dll

Visual Basic 4.0 Run-Time Files
Vb40032.dll

Ven2232.olb

Olepro32.dll

Mscrt20.dll

Msvcrt40.dll

Ctl3d32.dll

Component Dependency Files
Gauge32.ocx

Tabctl32.ocx

Odkob32.dll

Mfc40.dll



STATUS
Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.



MORE INFORMATION
Remote Connection Manager is a utility that allows a client application to connect to a remote server. This utility is shipped with Visual C++ and is installed by default when installing Visual C++. Machines with either Visual C++ 4.0/4.2 or Visual Basic 4.0 installed will not experience this problem.
