SYMPTOMS
Users may have difficulty running the Microsoft Visual Basic sample programs provided with Microsoft SQL Server OLAP Services. The projects may display an "unknown reference" error message when loading into Visual Basic. This article explains how to correct the problem that is causing the error.



CAUSE
Some sample projects were shipped with out-of-date references to the Decision Support Objects (DSO) library and the Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects (Multi-dimensional) (ADO MD) library.



WORKAROUND
To fix the sample projects that experience this problem use these steps:
 * 1) On the Project menu in Visual Basic, click References.
 * 2) Clear the Microsoft Decision Support Objects reference check box.
 * 3) Clear the ActiveX Data Objects (Multi-dimensional) 1.0 reference check box.
 * 4) Save the project.
 * 5) Reselect these references, and then resave the project. This will update the references to the correct version.
