Hi experts,
I'm writing an add-in for MS Word using Visual Basic 6 and I'm having trouble with the package and deployment wizard. I think the problem could be caused by some of my project references... so I want to know which of the references below are necessary.
Visual Basic For Applications
Visual Basic runtime objects and procedures
Visual Basic objects and procedures
OLE Automation
Microsoft Office 11.0 object library
Microsoft add-in designer
Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0 Extensibility
Microsoft DAO 3.51 OBject Library
DS: OLE Document Properties 1.4 Object Library
Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.8 Library
Microsoft ADO Ext. 2.8 for DDL and Security
Microsoft Scripting Runtime
Microsoft Word 11.0 Object Library
Microsoft VBScript Regular Expressions 5.5
I assume that the first few are important. Also the reference to the Word Object Library. And I am using the reference to regular expressions. The rest are a mystery to me. I don't recall putting them there.
The package and deployment errors include a "these files are needed for this package but cannot be found" (with a reference to just one file called "3"), a question about DAO and a list of accompanying drivers (which I don't understand at all) and a question about files for which dependency information could not be found (including some important dlls like "fm20.dll", "mso.dll" and "msword.olb".
In short, I may have a number of problems... but if anyone can tell me which of the references are absolutely necessary, I can start to build from there.
Thanks in advance,
