Hello

I am trying to calculate a sum in a report and it comes up with an error
message saying I need msowcf.dll. I have not got it on my machines or any of
the others in the office. I have reinstalled office twice but it never adds
it. Where can I find it? How can I do a check to see if the file is on the
system when the database is started?

Many thanks in advance.
 
That's a MS Office web components dll. Downloadable (apparently, though I
haven't tried it) from...

http://www.dlldump.com/download-dll-files.php/dllfiles/M/MSOWCF.DLL/download.html

You'd probably also need to register it... as in....

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;279544

But having said that, you shouldn't need it for something as straightforward
as putting a total into a report. I'd suspect that something that requires
some functionality from the dll has got inserted into the report. How are
you trying to calculate the total? Does the query that the report is based
on work OK without any complaints?
 
Hello

Thankyou for getting back to me. I had a command box with control source
"=Sum([adding])" where [adding] had control source "=Sum([units]*[price])"
but i have changed it now and it works.

I have another problem with MSMusCtrl.dll. Without that the database can't
work out the date which brings many errors without actualy telling the user.
Is there a way that I can check it exsist when the database is run to stop
this from happening?

Many thanks.
 
I've never needed any non-standard dlls to work out a date.... how are you
trying to do it?

You can though check if a file exists by using...

if dir(strFilePath)<>"" then
'file exists

Thankyou for getting back to me.

Its a simple Date command. When people change a record the database records
the date it was altered. Something like:

AfterUpdate
me.comments = me.comments & vbcrlf & Date & user comments

but it comes up with an error if its in a text box with #Name

This stops happening if I copy MSMusCtrl.dll into the System32 folder.
