<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks Rohit for this suggestion. The error I am
seeing is for the three Win 2003 SP2 servers I have tried. All fail in the same
way. The single Win 2003 SP1 I have tried works OK.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>So I am guessing the problem is not related to a
problem on one server. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am learning where to look y reading the manual
"OLE/COM - explained" section for the registry program "RegistryTool".
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've not found a solution yet so any other
suggestions are welcome.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am (still) working with D6 on a program
that provides a COM/OLE services on windows clients, windows networks. The
program allows VB code in MS Word and other programs to 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>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The program can register its COM interfaces
when it first runs or by running it with the /regserver command line
option.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It registers OK in all MS operating systems
win9x, win2000, XP, win 2003, win 2003 SP1, (but not Win 2003 SP2) and
Vista (once we use the "real admin" logon account). I have 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>

Win 2003 SP2 gives me this problem.</FONT></DIV>

VB Editor tissues the error "Compile error \n Error in Loading DLL" and
points to an object referencing a servive provided by my program. When other
programs ask for com services they are not provided. Yet when I edit this
code in the VB Editor the code completion feature knows about my type
library and presents options from my type library. So my type library seems
to have been registered OK.</SPAN></SPAN></FONT></FONT></DIV>
