It may have nothing to do with it, but it could be damaged dotnet.<br>
<br>
Last week I had a situation where suddenly the BDS IDE stopped
compiling, but command line compile still worked. It turned out be
corrupted dotnet2 files. Reinstalling it did not fix it. However,
uninstalling and installing again did. I only found it by comparing
every windows exe with another pc. :-)<br>

program that provides a COM/OLE services on windows clients, windows

call these com services in my D6 executable. Typically the services get
data from a Firebird DB and pass it to the requestors.</font></div>

verified its registration works on each OS mentioned in actual sites
and in my test setup. I have verified the registration is only partial
in Win 2003 SP2. The com interfaces appear in the registry and they are
removed when I run the program with command line /unregserver. Using
TREGSRV does not help.</font></div>
