|I have mutliple versions installed on machine - I have to older verison
plus
| I have Visual Studio 2005 Professional installed. All packages are created
in
| VB6 and I havent had time to move everything ove to the new version.
| The error i get is as follows;
| Unable to build the package because the install location needs to be set
for
| the following files:
| c:\windows\system32\oleaut32.dll
| c:\windows\system32\olepro32.dll
| c:\windows\system32\asycfilt.dll
| c:\windows\system32\stdole2.tlb
| c:\program files\Microsoft Office\Office12\excel.exe
| c:\windows\system32\sysinfo.ocx
|
| the majority of the DLL refer to VB6. For the Excel file for example, the
| install location i have set the APP path the the fsame folder above but
still
| get the message.
|
| The only thing I can think of is when installing the newer 2005 version it
| overwrote something in the other version that i need to package my older
| items with VB6.
