Run Time Error
Hi all
I have just put the front end of an "established" access2000 onto a new XP PC. The new machine is running XP Pro and Office Pro 2003. When performing a selection, I get the prompt "run time error 429" and "activex component can't create object". When I look at the debug option it highlights the line: Set ClsMouseWheel = New MouseWheel.CMouseWheel The guy who set up the database included a mousewheel.dll file in the MS directory for previous intalls. I have done this, but the error message appears nonetheless. Any ideas guys? TIA Phil |

Try putting a copy of the mousewheel.dll in the same folder as the
front-end. That particular mouse scroll wheel add-in needs to find the DLL either in the windows\system or calling app directory. -Ed "TheScullster" phil-at-dropthespam.com wrote in message ...

Try using regsvr32.exe to register the DLL / ActiveX object with the OS.

Thanks Van
Tried this and got an error: GetLastError 0x00000007e Googled for this but couldn't find a solution. Have you come across this? Phil |

Sorry, I haven't heard of this error.
It is possible that mousewheel.dll has some dependencies that is not available from your new PC. There was a site that list dependencies of these files but I lost the Web address. Someone else may have this Web address handy? -- HTH Van T. Dinh MVP (Access) "TheScullster" phil-at-dropthespam.com wrote in message ...

Solution found!
I had been trying to run regsvr32.exe logged in as user. Mousewheel registers correctly when logged in as local admin.....doh Thanks to all respondents Phil |

Thanks for letting the newsgroup know the solution.
Sorry, I always do these things as Admin and didn't think of the possibility that you were having problem registering DLL / ActiveX as normal user. -- HTH Van T.
