usage dll from vb6

[Maxim]

Hi!
I have a very strange problem for one computer (XP - SP1):
I run VB6 program that include usage of dll (BankC.dll - the name)
public declare function XXX lib "BankC.dll" ...
I put this dll in windows\system32 directory and get run-time error 53 -
File not found - BankC.dll but I see this file !!!
I put him in current directory too.
Other computer in office run it properly
Why I get it?
Thanks
Max

Hi,

If it runs on other systems successfully, then the thoughts I have are:

- Is the PATH environment set correctly on the machine in question?
- Is the file damaged? Tried a new copy?
- Tried re-registering it with the system? (if self registering, use
regsvr32 from the run prompt)

Maxim,

Error 53 when calling functions from custom DLL:

If the library has a dependency to another DLL not installed in the client
PC, you also receive the file not found error. Open the DLL with depends.exe
and see if you have included all the dependecies in your installation
package.

If that does not help, try this in VB groups.
