Visual Basic 6 and Automation Errors

Post by SirWinner »

In order to fix these \"Automation errors\" when running VB6 EXE...

Runtime Error: '-2147024769 (8007007f)'

*** OR ***

Runtime Error: '-2147024770 (8007007e)'

One of these 2 seems to fix the error:

- Registering the proper DLL(s).
\"Regsvr32 Filename.DLL\"

- Replacing the Bad DLL.
Had a DLL that was the wrong one. By replacing it with the GOOD one the problem was solved.

***

Hope this helps someone else fix this kind of problem.

A Google Search on the first of the 2 errors tried to say it was an ADODB issue. But since I wasn't using a Database, I ruled that out.

Enjoy!

In VB, 'automation' basically means 'dll', so that would have been the first order of business.
