[Dxbase] Registering a DLL

Fri Sep 27 17:57:55 EDT 2013

Joe,
I'm not very "computer literate." Why do I want to "register a .DLL" ?
What programs is it needed for? Is there a reason the "program install"
can't do it?
Thanks,
Merle W0EWM
I will NOW - try to detail the steps that I TOOK to be able to get 
dao350.dll
REGISTERED on my Windows 8 64bit LapTop computer ..
NOTE!! -- there MIGHT be other ways to do this - but, this method was the
one I used -- and it worked all ok:
NOTE #2 !! -- this GUIDE assumes that you HAVE already SAVED the dao350.dll
file to your C:\Program Files (X86)\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\DAO
directory and that you have made sure that the dao350.dll file is NOT 
BLOCKED.
(1) Bootup your Windows 8 64 bit computer
(2) Log onto your computer
(3) The Start window should now be seen
(4) Right-Click the Mouse -- you should now see (BOTTOM of the display)
the words "All apps" - left click on those words -- Now, the "Apps" window 
should
be viewable.
(5) Scroll to the RIGHT in that window - until you SEE the "Command Prompt"
words and it's ICON.
(6) Move your mouse cursor over the ICON/Words "Command Prompt" - then
Right-click on that ICON - down at the Bottom of the window you will now see
various OPTIONS -- Left-Click on the words/ICON for "Run as administrator"
(7) The Command Prompt window should NOW be available -- AND -- the window
WILL SHOW "Administrator: Command Prompt" -- indicating that the command 
prompt
NOW has the Administrator privileges.
The command prompt should be showing that you are in the
C:\Windows\system32
directory
(8) VERY CAREFULLY - Manually type-in the following (EXACTLY AS IS) :
regsvr32 "C:\Program Files (X86)\Common Files\Microsoft 
Shared\DAO\dao350.dll"
Once you press the ENTER KEY - you should see the small pop-up window
that says that the DLL file was in fact REGISTERED.
NOTE!! If your computer system is using a FOREIGN language - your line of 
info
MIGHT be different than the above -- because of your LANGUAGE used!! Adjust
accordingly.
This method worked 100% all ok for me -- hopefully it will work for you all 
too.
Gud Luck!
