OLE Server Not Recognized

[jason9118]

I get this error when I try to use the chart wizard. Microsoft says to
do the below to fix the problem but I've ran it twice with no success.
Any help is appreciated. I'm using 2000 9.0 on Windows 98.


---------------------
Click Start, point to Programs, point to Accessories, and then click
MS-DOS Command Prompt. (In Microsoft Windows 95 or Microsoft Windows
98, Command Prompt is on the Programs menu.)
At the command prompt, type the following command, and then press ENTER
to change to the C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft
Shared\MSDesigners98 folder:
CD "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\MSDesigners98"

Type the following command, and then press ENTER to register the DLLs
in the folder
FOR %1 IN (*.DLL) DO path\Regsvr32.exe %1

where path is the path to the Regsvr32.exe program, for example,
C:\Windows\System or C:\Winnt\System.

Note that not all of the DLLs that are in the folder can be registered.
Ignore any message that says that the entry point was not found for the
Mtd2g.dll or Mtd2gfx.dll file.

Jason -

It is usually helpful to include the source, when quoting a fix that you have attempted.
Where exactly does Microsoft give these instructions?

Is there any chance your error message could have been "The OLE server isn't registered"
instead of "OLE Server Not Recognized"? Here are some KB articles for you to check out:
