PRB: Program Generates Error 429 on First Reference to RDO

Last reviewed: February 27, 1998
Article ID: Q181852

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Visual Basic Enterprise Edition for Windows, version 5.0

SYMPTOMS

When trying to run an application using Remote Data Object (RDO), the first line of code that references RDO generates error number 429 listed below:

   ActiveX component cannot create object.

CAUSE

This may be due to a registration problem with the Msrdo20.dll file.

RESOLUTION

Manually re-register the .dll using the REGSVR32 utility. To do this, select Run from the Start menu and enter the following line:

   REGSVR32 c:\winnt\system32\Msrdo20.dll

It may be necessary to include a path to Regsvr32.exe and/or modify the path to the Msrdo20.dll file.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.
