Not sure if this is the right spot for this question.
I was trying to install some business software and got a Run-time error 429
"Active-X component can't create object".
My support people say it's because i've got mismatched or corrupt mdac
files.
I found and ran the "component checker" which told me I had some mismatched
files.
I then tried to re-install mdac, of course I got the error about it's
incompatability with XP sp2.
I found a couple of places where it gave instructions on installing mdac 2.8
sp1 back onto XPsp2 but now I'm getting this error msg:
Error Executing Action
INSTALLDRVRMGR: Unable to install driver manager with error code -2147467259
When I followed the 'reinstall' instructions it appeared the install went
OK, the install boxes went away, my screen would blink like it refreshed
then the error msg would pop up.
Now when I run the component checker, I have just one mismatched file but I
have several missing "registry" components which weren't missing before.
One other suggestion mentioned uninstalling SP2, undating mdac then
re-installing sp2. I hope not but...
Any suggestions?
