Ordinal 23 in MAPI32.dll

[Guest]

I just installed Corel Photo Album 6 however cannot open it. I get the
following error message instead: "The ordinal 23 could not be located in the
dynamic link library MAPI32.dll.

I have no idea what this means and didn't find a reply related to ordinal
23. Any help is appreciated.

A DLL is a collection of subroutines packaged so that they can be used
by many programs. The routines can be accessed by name or ordinal.
"Ordinal" is simply a number from one to something that identifies a
routine in the DLL.

When a program looks for a routine in a DLL by ordinal and doesn't
find it, the most common reason is that it's expecting a newer version
of the DLL (containing more routines) than it finds.

I think I'd try Corel support first, maybe they can supply you with
the proper version of mapi32.dll.

Thanks, Tim, I'll give Corel. I appreciate you explaining DLL and ordinal.
One good thing about problems like this is help me learn the tech stuff.
Thanks a lot.
