This article was previously published under Q310303 SYMPTOMS When your Visual Basic project references the Microsoft
ActiveX Data Objects library, if you use the Package and Deployment Wizard
(PDW) to build the installation package, the Package and Deployment Wizard
includes the Mdac_typ.exe file to install Microsoft Data Access Components
(MDAC) on the target computer. The Mdac_typ.exe is located in the following
folder:
\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VB98\Wizards\PDWizard\Redist
However, every time you update MDAC, you do not guarantee that
the Mdac_typ.exe file is also updated. RESOLUTION To distribute the correct Mdac_typ.exe file with your
application, you must replace the version of Mdac_typ.exe in the \Program
Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VB98\Wizards\PDWizard\Redist folder with the
correct version of that file. REFERENCESFor additional
information about how to distribute and install MDAC with a Visual Basic
application, click the article numbers below to view the articles in the
