Missing DLLs?

[Jacques]

Hello,

We re-compiled a COM VC++6.0 project using Visual Studio .NET 2003
(unmanaged code). Next, we copied the DLL to a Windows 2003
Server computer. When we tried to register the COM object, the
registration failed (the VC++6.0 version registered OK).

We installed Visual Studio .NET 2003 on the Windows 2003 Sever,
and the COM object successfully registered (we did not re-compile
the COM object).

What DLLs, COM files,... are missing from Windows 2003 Server,
that we need to include with our COM component?

TIA,
Jacques

Have you tried run depends.exe? Most likely your DLL depends on one of
*71.dll.

Thanks,
Nikola

Hello Nikola.

Thank you for responding to my posting. I don't think it is one of the *.71
dlls, since
we statically link the component.

Here are the dlls that were reported from depends.exe:
ADVAPI32.DLL
COMCTL32.DLL
COMDLG32.DLL
GDI32.DLL
KERNEL32.DLL
MSVCRT.DLL
NTDLL.DLL
OLE32.DLL
OLEAUT32.DLL
RPCRT4.DLL
SHELL32.DLL
SHLWAPI.DLL
USER32.DLL
WINSPOOL.DRV
WS2HELP.DLL
WS2_32.DLL

Thanks,
Jacques
