SYMPTOMS

When you add a user in the Commerce Server 2000 Business Desk, the following error may occur:
Error in EditSheet with ID: "esUser0"

DataXml "User0" at char 762 in line 3:

CAUSE

This error occurs when Microsoft XML (MSXML) 3.0 is installed in replace mode. Commerce Server 2000 requires that MSXML 2.6 is installed. When MSXML 3.0 is installed in replace mode, it may break some functionality.

RESOLUTION

Install MSXML 3.0 in side-by-side mode or remove MSXML 3.0

Steps to install MSXML3.0 in side-by-side mode

  1. Open the command prompt window. At the command prompt, type <pathname>\xmlinst (where <pathname> is the folder where the Xmlinst.exe file is installed). This installs the latest version of MSXML in replace mode.
  2. To return to side-by-side mode, type <pathname>\xmlinst -u (where <pathname> is the folder where Xmlinst.exe is installed). This command uninstalls any registry entries for MSXML.
  3. Register the versions of MSXML that you want to run. Make sure to register the versions in order. For example, the following sequence registers MSXML.dll, MSXML2.dll, and MSXML3.dll:
    	C:\>regsvr32 MSXML.dll
    	C:\>regsvr32 MSXML2.dll
     	C:\>regsvr32 MSXML3.dll
