HI.

I have a Delphi 7 server, and D6 client. In both I have added Midaslib to
the uses...

Server compil;es and runs fine.

The Client side loads, and connects to the server, but at the first time I
call DataRequest method on a CDS, it falls over with message

Error loading Typelibrary/dll

Is it possible tht both Client and Server require the same version of the
DCU ? If thats the case, How would I use the D7 DCU in D6 ?

Unfortunatly the old D6 Client is encumbered with some 3rd party components
that I dont want to upgrade to D9.

Thanks,

Tony

It's probably a good idea to use the D7 midas.dll, since it has bug
fixes and is backwards compatible. But that means you cannot use the
DCU version; you must use the DLL version.
