Hi to all,

I am deploying a VB 6 application in a Windows 2003 server.

Wher the application starts, it creates a ADODB.connection object and tries
to connect to a Access Database. When it tries to create the connection, I
get a Type Mismatch error.

Using Access 2003, that's also installed in the target computer, I have made
a small function that makes the following:

cn = CreateObject("ADO.Connection")
msgbox cn.version

And I saw , with astonishment, it returns 11.0. The same functio nexecuted
on several others computers returns, correctly, 2.8

Then I downloades the MDAC Component Checker , executed in the target
machine , and it says that the installed mdac is 2.8.

I tried to reinstall MSDAC 2.8, but, as is a 2003 server, the installer
copies no data.

Anyone can help?

Thanks in advance

Sebastià Herreros
