ACC2: "Unexpected Error from External Database Driver [7]" (116383)

MORE INFORMATION

You can differentiate between the original and updated drivers by checking the file sizes. The original Btrv200.dll file has a file size of 110,592 bytes. The updated file has a file size of 110,624 bytes. For a network installation of Microsoft Access, install the updated file in the Access\System directory. For a stand-alone installation of Microsoft Access, install the updated file in the Windows\System directory.

NOTE: Do not install the updated file before installing Microsoft Access. You should install Microsoft Access first, and then install the updated driver.

How to Install the Updated Driver After Downloading

Stand-Alone Installation:

1. Make a backup copy of the original Btrv200.dll file by renaming it, or by copying it to another location. The Btrv200.dll file is in the Windows\System directory.
2. Copy the updated Btrv200.dll file to the Windows\System directory.

Network Installation:

1. The network administrator should make a backup copy of the original Btrv200.dll file by renaming it, or by copying it to another location. The Btrv200.dll file is in the Access\System directory on the network server.
2. The network administrator should copy the updated Btrv200.dll file to the Access\System directory on the network server.
3. The network administrator should make a backup copy of the Setup.inf file by renaming it, or by copying it to another location. The Setup.inf file is located in the Access installation directory on the network server.
4. The network administrator should open the Setup.inf file in any text editor (such as Notepad), and change the line that reads

        "DLL"= 1,SYSTEM\BTRV200.DLL,,,,,,1033,,,,,,,SHARED,110592,,,,2.0.0.13,
   						

   to read:

        "DLL"= 1,SYSTEM\BTRV200.DLL,,,,,,1033,,,,,,,SHARED,110592,,,,2.0.0.15,
   					

5. After making this change, the network administrator should save and then close the Setup.inf file.
   
   This modification changes the internal version from 2.0.0.13 to 2.0.0.15. Changing the internal version number in the Setup.inf file will cause future workstation installations of Microsoft Access to install the updated Btrieve driver on workstations that have a copy of the original Btrieve driver.
6. The network administrator should make the updated Btrv200.dll file available to those who have installed Microsoft Access to their local workstation hard disks. These users should copy the updated file to their Windows\System directories.
