Remote Automation: Installation

Home |  Overview |  How Do I |  Sample

Remote Automation has relatively few components:

• The Remote Automation client proxy, AUTPRX32.DLL.
  
  
• The Remote Automation server-side component, the Automation Manager, AUTMGR32.EXE.
  
  
• The RAC Manager, RACMGR32.EXE, with its matching RACREG32.DLL.

Of these, RAC Manager is written in Visual Basic and therefore needs the Visual Basic run-time support, too. These and the other Remote Automation files are installed by Setup when you install Visual C++ Version Enterprise Edition.

If you copy the Remote Automation components to a computer on which Visual C++ version Enterprise Edition is not installed, ensure that REGSRV32.EXE is on the computer’s path, and register RACREG32.DLL using the following command line:

REGSRVR32  RACREG32.DLL

Note   Versions of RAC Manager prior to Visual C++ 5.0 required GUAGE32.OCX and TABCTL32.OCX. Neither of these are required for the version of RAC Manager that ships with Visual C++ Enterprise Edition, version 5.0 or later.
