dbnmpntw - Win32 Named Pipes

The problem is with the network libraries loaded on that machine. Try adding
the following to your connection string

Network=dbmssocn in the form

Properties="DSN=yourdatasourcename;UID=sa;DATABASE=pubs;Network=dbmssocn";

this will force your program to try and use the TCP/IP libray instead of the
named pipes. See if the problem goes away.


Try reinstalling your service pack.

Mark,

Two things:

1) Can you tell me what the exact [DBNMPNTW] error is?

2) Are you using a DSN to connect to your SQL server or are you
	using a DSN-less connection from your program?

Cardyin,

I reinstalled mdac 2.5, but it did not work.

The Visual Studio was removed from that PC a while ago, could that be the
cause? This application is deployed throught the installation made by the
deployment wizard, though.

What would be the next thing to do?

Mark

Mark,

>From inside of your VB project, click on Project->References.
Check to see what version of Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects
Library you are using.  That is the version that you need
to install.

MDAC is the file you need to download.

Cardyin,

How do I find out what version of ADO do I have on my development machine?

Also, are those MDAC the things I should download?

Thanks

Mark

Mark,

You may have an old or corrupted version of ADO objects on that
particular machine.  Try reinstalling the ADO objects on that
machine.  You can find the setup program at the following link:

Make sure you install the same version of ADO that you use
on your development machine.

Hope this helps.
