I used to compile midas into my application exe with MidasLib unit. Then I wanted to reduce the size of main exe and took MidasLib out and deployed exe with midas.dll. After this change most users noticed no difference but one usert can't start application anymore: "program has generated errors and ....". When I put MidasLib back then it works again. I guess this user had previously midas.dll in another directory, but not anymore. I use InnoSetup for installing application with midas.dll and I suppose the installer does the registration of all dll-s. I also tried to register midas.dll manually (regsvr32 "c:program filesMyProgmidas.dll"), it said registration successful but it didn't help. Program is run and dll registration is done under non-admin user on win2000. When I use DependencyWalker on my application exe then everything seems OK. Where should I look next? thanks in advance!

This might be too obvious, but are you using the same version of midas.dll on user's workstation as you have on development PC when using midaslib?

Have you searched through registry for "midas.dll" - maybe you can find if there was another directory used (c:winntsystem32 is a pretty good bet). If so, drop midas.dll in that path (if it isn't already there) and "deregister" with regsvr32 /u "pathmidas.dll" You might need admin rights for this. Then register manually.

I have had terrible errors when I had different version in the borland directory and the system32 directory ;-) Jan "Aivar Annamaa" <aivar.annamaa (AT) reg (DOT) agri.ee> wrote Quote: Hi!
