what are possible problem in my application . I have also deployed msjet40.dll in my application . but doesn't works on 98
plz help me ??????????????????

your version of MDAC may not be the latest on the 98 machine. upgrade MDAC to same version on all machines.

Compile your access database on the 98 machine and you will probably find that the problem will be highlighted during compilation. That would most likely mean that if the adodb.connection is highlighted, the MDAC needs to be upgraded.

Download MDAC version 2.1 through 2.5 setup from microsoft site, and install the same. This installs OLEDB version 4. Should solve your problem.
