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.

Thank you!

ActiveX component can't create object / dwmapi.dll / windows 2003 / iis 6

Asked by AJKConcepts in Microsoft IIS Web Server, Active Server Pages (ASP), ActiveX

Tags: create, activex, component, object, 2003

Hi all, I'm in the process of moving an IIS 5 application to a windows 2003 / IIS 6 environment. I have a com object that supplies part of the shopping cart application and I'm getting this error:

Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01ad'
ActiveX component can't create object
H:\****************************, line 701

Where line 701 is a sever.createobject line to initialize the com object. After much research, I ran a dependency checker on the dll and found that 2 dll's are missing:

dwmapi.dll
devmgr.dll

I found the devmgr.dll in another part of the system, so I just copied it to the same folder with my com object to make the depends program happy. I have no idea what dwmapi.dll is nor why I need it. My windows 2000 server doesn't have it, and the same dll on that server doesn't depend on it.

The object was created in VB6 and installed using the COM+ services. The only references I have in the project are to ADO 2.8 and XML 4.0.

What's the secret handshake to get this to work right??View the Solution FREE for 30 Days
