Interop.CDO uses Interop.ADODB which has a higher version...

[muriwai]

Hi,

I have a C# assembly project under Visual Stuio 2008 Pro on Windows Server
2008. I converted the project from VS 2005.

The project references COM->Microsoft CDO for Windows 2000 Library 1.0,
which adds two entries under References called CDO and ADODB. When I compile
the solution, I get the following:

Error 1 Assembly 'Interop.CDO, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=13c3baacc352d1a9' uses 'Interop.ADODB, Version=6.0.0.0,
Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=13c3baacc352d1a9' which has a higher version
than referenced assembly 'Interop.ADODB, Version=2.8.0.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=13c3baacc352d1a9'
c:\sw\clweb\@tmp\Company.Web\release\Interop.CDO.d ll Company.Web

I tried to remove both CDO and ADODB from the references and add a reference
to "Microsoft CDO for Windows 2000 Library" again. This creates CDO and
ADODB under References and produces the same error.

How can I fix it?

Thank you,

John

I tried removing ADODB from references and adding ADODB 2.8 and ADODB 6.0
without any luck.

Hello John,

According to your description, you found your project failed on compiling
after converted from VS 2005 to VS 2008. The error message is "Interop.CDO
use Interop.ADODB 6.0.0.0 which has a higher version than referenced
assembly ADODB 2.8.0.0. If I misunderstood anything here, please don't
hesitate to correct me?

I'm not sure if you received this issue before you convert the project to VS
2008? This could help on verifying if this is a VS 2005 to VS 2008
conversion issue. Moreover, is it possible for you to create a new simple
project and add reference to CDO in VS 2008. We have to check if VS 2008
compile the project without error. This could help on confirm if this is VS
2008 issue.

This error means your project references to the wrong version of ADODB. The
current version is 2.8, but your CDO uses ADODB 6.0. It seems you have tried
to remove referenced assembly (ADODB 2.8), and added referenced assembly
(ADODB 6.0). Could you please also let me know the exact error message after
you changed referenced assembly?

Sorry for so many question. Actually, we haven't heard such issue so far.
Please understand we need detailed information to narrow down the issue.

If you have any more concern, please feel free to let us know. We are glad
to assist you.
Have a great day,
Best regards,
Wen Yuan

Hi Wen,

Thank you for your reply.

The issue did not exist in VS 2005 and showed up after conversion to VS
2008.

I manually deleted all the output and temp files ("Clean" and "Rebuild"
didn't help), re-referenced the CDO, and re-built the project. The problem
seems to have gone.

Cheers,

John

Hello John,
Thanks for your reply.

I'm really glad to hear you resolved the issue.
It seems VS 2005 IDE compiles the project with some old files which
generate by VS 2005. I think this maybe related with conversion.
Some temp files generated by VS 2005 confused VS 2008. Thereby, the issue
goes away after you clean the folder.
I believe the issue won't show up again. Anyway, if you find the issue come
back again, please feel free to let us know. We will follow up. It's my
pleasure to assist you.

Thanks again for your solution. Other community memebers may get benefit
from your reply.:)
Have a great day,
Best regards,
Wen Yuan
