OFF4: Organization Chart 1.0 Will Not Run Without Shared Code

ID: Q140866


The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Organization Chart for the Macintosh, version 1.0
  • Microsoft ClipArt Gallery for Macintosh, version 1.0


SYMPTOMS

When you attempt to start Organization Chart or ClipArt Gallery, you receive one of the following error messages:

The server application, source file, or item cannot be found. Make sure the application is properly installed and that it has not been deleted, moved, or renamed.
-or-
Cannot start the source application for this object.
followed by one of the following Finder level messages:

Organization Chart
Unable to Load Object Linking and Embedding Libraries
ClipArt Gallery
Could not load DLL's. Exiting program.


CAUSE

The above error may be caused by one of the following conditions:

Case 1: The Shared Code Manager and the Shared Code Folder are missing, damaged, or not installed. The Shared Code Manager is an extension (located in your System:Extensions folder) that loads the dynamic- link library (dll) files stored in the Shared Code Folder. The dll files are:

OLE Client Dll
OLE Reg Dll
OLE Server Dll
Case 2: PowerPoint has never been installed, but you installed the Organization Chart during Office setup.

Case 3: You did not load the Shared Code Manager (for example, you turned off the Shared Code Manager in the System 7.5 Extensions Manager; or, if you are using an earlier version of the System software, you moved the Shared Code Manager or Shared Code Folder out of the Extensions folder).


RESOLUTION

Case 1: Remove the Shared Code Manager and the Shared Code Folder and reinstall or install PowerPoint 4.0.

Case 2: Install PowerPoint 4.0.

NOTE: If you have limited disk space, you can run Setup in maintenance mode to remove the PowerPoint files. The Shared Code Manager and Shared Code folder will not be removed.

Case 3: Move the Shared Code Manager back into your System:Extensions folder or turn on the Shared Code Manager in the Extensions Manager (System 7.5).


MORE INFORMATION

When you run Organization Chart after you remove PowerPoint, Word uses a macro called OrganizationalChartMaker to create the chart. The macro is located in the Word 6.0 Macros template in your Microsoft Office:Microsoft Word 6:Macros folder. The OrganizationalChartMaker macro creates your chart based on Heading Styles in your Word document. If you did not format your text with Heading styles, the OrganizationalChartMaker macro will provide you with additional information to run the macro.

A printer must be selected in the Chooser before you can run Microsoft Organization Chart.
