exprsrv.dll fails to register

[Jose]

I created a setup program for an app I wrote. When the setup is going on I get a meassage saying that there was an error registering expsrv.dll. When I click ignore the installation completes successfully and the app runs perfectly. Why am I getting this error and how can I fix it? Is this dll necessary? What's it for?
Thank you

I found exactly the same *feature* when creating a setup. This DLL is used by DAO/Access (I think) and it ISN'T an ActiveX DLL, although for some reason the Package and Deployment wizard thinks it is.

To fix the problem, you'll have to go through the SETUP.LST file and remove the (DLLSELFREGISTER) entry (between the commas) for that DLL.
