error 5 can be caused by a lot of things - you need to try and pin down the
line it fails on (Msgbox 1,2....?)

I had it once from a date setting on the client which was different than I
was expecting so that might be worth checking.

Subject: [pro_vb] installation probs


I have developed an app using VB6 ent SP5. The application references the 
default references +ADO2.6 I use 2 comm controls some buttons, labels and 
text boxes. 1 class module and 1 bas module. when I compile and run the 
app on the dev box (win98) it all runs fine. If I use the package & 
deployment wizard it creates the setup no probs. When I install the app on 
another machine (Win ME) it installs with no errors. MDAC is also loaded. 
When I run the app on WinMe it loads fine, but then without fail I get an 
error 5 invalid procedure call or argument. I never get this message on 
the dev machine.

Regards
Bill
