PRB: Out-Of-Date Dependency Information for MSCal.ocx

ID: Q197123

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Visual Basic Learning, Professional, and Enterprise Editions for Windows, version 6.0

SYMPTOMS

When you package a Microsoft Visual Basic application with the Package and Deployment Wizard (PDW), the following message appears:

The wizard found dependency information for the listed files, but the
information is out of date. To proceed with the out-of-date information,
click OK.

This article applies to Visual Basic applications that reference the Microsoft Calendar Control (MSCal.ocx).

CAUSE

The version number for MSCal.ocx is 8.0.0.5007, but the version listed in MSCal.dep is 8.0.32.29.

RESOLUTION

The issue may be resolved by changing the version number in MSCal.dep from 8.0.32.29 to 8.0.0.5007.

Step-by-Step Procedures

Locate the MSCal.dep file. Under Windows NT, this file is in the \Winnt\System32 directory. Under Windows 95 or Windows 98, this file is in the \Windows\System directory.

Open MSCal.dep in a text editor such as Notepad.

Scroll down until you see the following:


      [MSCAL.OCX]
      Dest=$(WinSysPath)
      Register=$(DLLSelfRegisterEx)
      Version=8.0.32.29
      Uses1=

Change the line that says "Version=8.0.32.29" to "Version=8.0.0.5007."

STATUS

This behavior is by design.

MORE INFORMATION

You can find MSCal.ocx and MSCal.dep in the \Os\System directory on the first disk of Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0.
