SQLDMO.dll has a whole host of other dependencies, you would have to also install these.

I would check licensing issues, I don’t think you are allowed to distribute these dll’s with your application.

There are still client access licenses required, I believe. You know, if you
were to get audited or something....

think i've just realised what im doing wrong,

i thought SQLDMO.dll & SQLDMO.rll are all that is required on the client
machine, the rest reside on the server.

ill let you know how i get on

I have read the article and it says that more than 2 files are required.
Sqldmo.dll
Sqldmo.rll
Sqlsvc.dll
Sqlsvc.rll
Sqlwoa.dll
Sqlresld.dll
Sqlwid.dll
W95scm.dll

Plus one or all of the following depending on the protocol used:
Named Pipes: Dbnmpntw.dll
Sockets: Dbmssocn.dll
Multi-Protocol: Dbmsrpcn.dll

We have a small program with our overall application that uses SQLDMO to manage the database schema, I have tested this installing the above files
and it works fine.
There are licencing issuses, the company I work for states to our clients that the application that manages the database schema can only be run on a
workstation with the correct licences. We have someone here who is really up
on licencing and he has confirmed that even using the dll's internally on a
none licenced machine is breaking the licence. Licencing is very
complicated, thats why we have someone dedicated to the task.

There should be a redist.txt file or something like it in your binn folder
under Microsoft SQL Server.
