ODK: Access 2.0 Required to Install VB Compatibility Layer PSS ID Number: Q117418 Article last modified on 11-02-1994 PSS database name: HOMEMM

1994 WINDOWS

= SYMPTOMS =

Installing the Microsoft Jet Engine Database 2.0/Visual Basic 3.0 Compatibility Layer requires the Access 2.0 database engine. The Compatibility Layer is designed to be set up on a machine that already has Access 2.0 installed on it. Some developers, however, may choose to develop Visual Basic applications on a different machine than the one that has Access.

= RESOLUTION =

If you own a copy of Access 2.0, you can copy the file MSAJT200.DLL to the Windows SYSTEM subdirectory on the target machine before running Setup.

= MORE INFORMATION =

According to the file ACC2COMP.TXT, several files are necessary to install the Compatibility Layer with Visual Basic 3.0. All of the files are included with the Office Developer’s Kit, except for MSAJT200.DLL which ships with Microsoft Access 2.0 or the Access Developer’s Toolkit (ADT). If this file is present in the Windows SYSTEM subdirectory, Setup will successfully install the Compatibility Layer.
