VB6 exe cannot find VF dll

[mcphome_com]

Hi

My Visual Basic 6 program works properly on Windows 98. But on some Windows XP systems it does not find my .dll which is written in fortran. I have tried both System32 and application directory for placing my .dll, but there was no difference. regsvr32 or visual studio installershow error messages while they register this dll.I am using visual fortran, a member of visual studio 97.

You may want to download this program here.

Please help.

Thank you,

Mehdi Ahmadizadeh

First, make sure you built your DLL in a "release" configuration, not "debug". Then, on the other systems, download and install the redistributables package found here.

Thank you sblionel

My dll was built in release format. I will try your suggestion. I think you mean that I should add these files to my package, dont you?

Please let me know if there is any other point.

Thank you again,

Mehdi

You could add the files to your package if you want. To find out what DLLs you need, right click on your DLL and select View Dependencies. It most likely needs DFORRT.DLL or DFORMD.DLL.
