PRB: "API Library Revision Mismatch. Rebuild Library." Error

Last reviewed: August 28, 1995
Article ID: Q101801
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft FoxPro Library Construction Kit, version 2.0
  • Microsoft FoxPro for MS-DOS, versions 2.5, 2.5a

When you attempt to issue the SET LIBRARY TO command with a library created with the FoxPro 2.0 Library Construction Kit (LCK) while you are using FoxPro 2.5 or later for MS-DOS, the following error message is displayed:

   API library revision mismatch. Rebuild library.

To correct this problem, you must update the library file by following the directions in FOXPRO25\GOODIES\LCKUPDAT\LCKUPDAT.TXT. This file provides the information necessary to update the 2.0 LCK for use with FoxPro 2.5 and later. You cannot update the library file without the LCK and the source code for the library. If you obtained the library from a third party, contact that party to obtain the updated file for use with FoxPro 2.5 and later for MS-DOS.
