cdosys.dll problem VB.Net 03

[boomstick425]

Hello,

I currently made an application that utilizes an import CDO to help save web pages as mht files. I made the applicatiion and attempted to deploy it but that's when all **** broke loose. I received errors left and right but mainly the problem is the CDO reference (it now contains an "!" over it). I tried deleting the reference and getting it again (it's located in Win\Sys32\cdosys.dll) but it did not work and I still receive the error message. I don't know if I some how screwed things up when I tried deploying my project when I added the references to deployment project or what but I am really confused. I get the error message with this number 0x800704da. I am ready to pull my hair out with this project. Please understand Iam just beginning to program and my knowledge is limited.

Thank you for your help.

Hi, the 0x800704da means that CDO objects have been already registered using a different dll.
You have to unregister cdoex.dll (usually on C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\CDO) and then register cdosys.dll (on c:\windows\system32).
By the way, if you don't have C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\CDO\cdoex.dll you can create the folder and copy the file from another working system.
