Last reviewed: December 5, 1997
Article ID: Q177638

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Visual Basic Standard and Enterprise Editions, 32-bit only, for Windows, version 4.0

SYMPTOMS

When upgrading Microsoft Exchange Server from 4.0 or 5.0 to 5.5, you may need to re-register some DLLs in the Visual Basic references menu.

When Visual Basic is installed on an Exchange Server computer, and the Exchange version is upgraded to 5.5, some DLLs become unregistered due to version changes and will require re-registering in Visual Basic.

RESOLUTION

There is no workaround.
