The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

VB Automation error 8007007e

Asked by tgauslaa in Visual Basic Programming

Tags: , , ,

Hi!

I have a problem with automation when trying to use a FileSystemObject. I run Windows XP with Office 2000 and the project is developed in Visual Basic 6.
When trying to execute the code below, I get this eror:

Run-time error '-2147024770 (8007007e)':
Automation error
The specified module could not be found.

----------------------------------
Private UserFileName As String
Private fso As New FileSystemObject

UserFileName = fso.GetSpecialFolder(WindowsFolder) + "\users.mdb"
----------------------------------

When I look at the FileSystemObject (fso) the Watch displays this message:
<Object variable or With block variable not set>

I have recently upgraded from Windows 2000 to Windows XP operating system. From what I read on the internet there might be an error with OLE Automation, but I don't know how to solve this. Everything worked just fine before I switched operating systems, and I also recall that everything worked fine in the beginning after Windows XP was installed (but I might be wrong on this point).

Can anyone give me a clue to what it could be, and how I should solve it?
