project contains a missing or broken reference to BasicInfo.ocx

[consultant29]

Hello!

I am developing a database for a long time client of mine.

The database opens fine on my machine, but not on any of theirs.

I have a function that grabs the username of the person based on their windows login.

This is the error:

project contains a missing or broken reference to BasicInfo.ocx

I have attached a PDF of the exact error. Please help!

In a nut shell you need to copy the .ocx file to the new computer.

Okay, what version of the ocx file am I supposed to use?

I searched my own pc and found the file under C:\Program Files\Toshiba !

Being that my client uses Dell, I really doubt they have a Toshiba folder.

Also, do I need to place this file on every machine they use?

Do I simply take my file a copy it? Who is to say it is the right version?

What a mess. Good job again Microsoft.

Hi,

do you specifically need to refer to the ocx or is it that it is just added into your references? do you need it for anything?

if not,

remove it from your references and save your db again

in VBA project go to Tools/References

if you do refer to the ocx, copy the ocx that you are referring to
