Hi,
I have a strange problem. We developed a really large VB program with NT 4. Yesterday I got a new computer with Windows 2000. I didn't have a problem with compiling the program, writing the EXE or starting the program. BUT when a user with NT 4 tries to start the Win2000 compiled program, he'll get a Dr. Watson error message. I can't figure out, whats wrong with it. Are there any special compile instruction, which I must set that the program will run on NT 4 ???
Thanks for your help !

Hello,
We have been facing the same problem long time ago.
Run the Dependency walker software, which allows you to know the dlls required for the software to run and be compiled properly. Once you know the dlls required place the dlls in the VB project location and compile or run the software. This should solve the problem.
Thanks

I'm convinced that some of the DLLs in win2k are not 'good' for nt4. We've found that including the latest and greatest versions of some win2k DLLs in our install package causes some features of our app to not work on nt4. We've reserved a machine with nt4 for doing our exe compiles and
thanx/good luck,
