BUG: IE Fails to Render When Adding Multiple Typelib References (190755)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Visual InterDev 6.0
This article was previously published under Q190755

SYMPTOMS

When previewing a Web page from a project that has references to multiple DLLs, Internet Explorer does not display any data.

RESOLUTION

When a project contains references to multiple Dlls, the Global.asa maintains a reference to each typelib definition. However, you cannot have multiple typlib references in the Global.asa.

You can workaround the problem by editing the typelib definitions at the top of the Global.asa file for the project. The correct Typelib reference would look like this: 
   <!-- METADATA TYPE="TypeLib" Name="test1" UUID="<some string>"
   VERSION="1.0">
You can do one of two things :
  • Rename the typelib definition to something non-existent: 
          <!-- METADATA TYPE="ffTypeLib" Name="test1" UUID="<some string>"
      VERSION="1.0">
  • Delete this reference from the Global.asa.
