I as a developer have an application that I can run from my box or from a
shared drive, but I cannot get anybody else to run it. They do have the same
version of the framework on their boxes, yet they are unable to run the
application. What do I need to do. The error is not a security exception

Is this an announcement or do you want some help with your problem.

I think in the last case is the least you can do to tell what is the error.

Just my thought,

I need help and it will be greatly appreciated

The error received is "Type Initializerin MYAppSupport threw an exception".
But When I run it I do not get an error.
 
I need help and it will be greatly appreciatedAnd what is than the errormessage, without that it will be in my opinion
almost impossible to help you.

Rodrigue,

Did you installed it on the shared computer using the MSI or another kind of
install package or did you only transport the exe?

In other words did you create a deployment project?

Cor
 
I did both, first I copied all the files on the server, when that failed I
created an install using the MSI that I ran on the client, the result was the
same
 
What can this be "MYAppSupport"

Myapp is the name of my application. Tracing through it , this error occurs
on an attempt to sign on to the SQL server. Following is the likely culprit

Module UpgradeSupport
Friend DAODBEngine_definst As New DAO.DBEngine
Friend WordGlobal_definst As New Word.Global
End Module
Do the versions of DAO have to be the same on the clients as the devoloper's
box?
 
Rodrigue,

When you use DAO you needs to install the dll's again and loose with that
those benefits of Net.

You have than to include that in your deployment package.

Cor
 
How would I do that, thus far I created a deployment package that I ran on a
client, I also verified that DAO is in System32 of the client. DAO35.dll is
also in the application folder on the shared drive. I also get the error when
I copy the code to a local drive.

The time I used DAO is far behind me.

I asked Paul Clement in another newsgroup if he can look to this question.
That is no guarantee he does that or that when he does that knows the answer
for you and answer than..

DAO is a very old you know, however I know that Paul sees some benefits in
it.
