Hi,
The problem i'm having is that, i've been updating an access 97
database that was originally created in an NT4 environment. My machine
is running xp and the same developers edition of access 97. The current
database runs fine on the users machine with no erros at all. but when
using my updated database all Date() fields appears as Name? and throw
error "missing project or library" when used in code. I also have
problems using Set dbsDatabase As Database commands.
I believe the problem is something to do with the old database using an
old NT4 version of doa2535.tlb and com32dlg.ocx and when i have updated
it, it now uses an xp version of the files which the users access
doesn't recognise.
A quick fix for this would be to access tools --references, and
unclick, reclick the missing files, however this only works for the
time the user is logged in, and reverts back to errors as soon as the
log off/log back on.
I have had the though of downgrading a machine to NT4 and re-working
the whole database in that environment, but that is something i'd
rather avoid as development time is already at 2-3 months.
thanks in advance

This library was to help bridge the gap from early 16-bit versions to Access
95/97. It is now obsolete.
In most databases, it is a relatively easy task to remove it completely, and
just use the DAO 3.6 library. 3.6 recognises most of the old constants. You
can search'n'replac e most of the items that won't compile. For example,
find:
Dim MyVariable As Dynaset
and replace with:
Dim MyVariable As DAO.Recordset

I need to port a library that is written entirely in C to C++. The

that existing users won't have to do anything to their existing

As I understand it there is a good amount of link compatibility
among C compilers. For example, I can compile main.c with GCC

What I'm curious about is why this compatibility exists in the
absence of a standard C ABI?
What encourages C compiler vendors to agree on implementation

I have noticed that when I move my database onto a different
computer, I often get a message about some reference missing. So I go
into the reference list, and find the one that says "Missing," and I
uncheck it.
Everything appears to work fine after that, however, this raises
two questions in my mind.
1. Does simply unchecking the missing reference cause me to lose any
functionality? I haven't noticed any yet, but that doesn't mean...

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
