Missing msadox.dll

[llkhoutx]

I'm using some code from Litwin's Access 2002 Developer's Handbook, Enterprise Edition in an Access 2002 mdb, which requires msadox.dll in order to do use ado code.

I'm using Windows 98 and can't find it with the Windows Explorer "Find Tool."

When compiling the "canned code" I get the following missing reference:

Microsoft ADO Ext. 2.6 for DLL and Security

It's looking for:

c:\Program files\Common Files\System\ado\ _
msadox.dll

I have such a folder (ado), but no msadox.dll in it or in C:\ or its subdirectories.

Do I have to upgrade to a newer version of Windows to get it?

Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.

Just search Microsoft. msadox.dll is an ADO Extensions Library.

Sometimnes, the harder I word, the more behind I get.

My database crashed and when I rechecked the undefined reference, the ADO reference was present and the "canned" code worked perfectly. Don't know where the ADO reference was hiding as I searched my entire C:\, and subfolders, for it.

Ghudson, the MSDE reference you posted is great information to have. Thank you.
