After a rebuild on a PC I appear to have lost the ability to use the
Microsoft DAO 2.5/3.0 Compatibility Library reference.

The error initially stated the reference was missing - so I un-checked it in
References table. Restarted and attempted to re-check it with the following
error:

Dao 2.5/3.0 is not compatible with this version of Microsoft Access

The access version has not been upgraded, though there may be some other
issues caused during the PC clean-up.

I've reinstalled A97 to no avail so far. Is there a download available to
re-instate compatibility.

Any help appreciated.
 
Hi,
I think this library came from Access 95, it was used to run access 2
applications on access 95/97. You can forget about it and use Microsoft DAO
3.5 or Microsoft DAO 3.6
Could be that you need to adjust your code a little bit, as renaming
constants, but this should not be a big problem

Thanks Alex

I re-registered (3 times???) the dao350.dll and all was well with the world
again. Seems the 2.5/3.0 Compat library is in there?

Is there any way to specifically track down the offending code that prevents
the app running in 3.6? This app was converted originally from A2.0 then A97
to A97. Though I thought that all the A2.0 code had been upgraded at the
time.

2.5/3.0 Compat library is some kind of replacement for dao350.dll

Try to compile your project, it if fails - then look what is problem.
Normally you only need to replace constants like A_Form with acForm
