How can I update Oleaut32.dll?

[Colleen]

In my installation program, I'm trying to update older versions of Oleaut32.dll with a newer one. It seems to create Oleaut32.1, and leaves the existing file in place.

Is there anyway for me to overwrite this file? Thanks!

Use the P&D wizard to create a setup for you, it will reboot if you need to change the file(s) that are always loaded with windooz (like the one you're talking about)

Can I update ole32.dll in other way, becouse I want some programms to run only in exe way, and I don't want to make setup.

VB programs always need some runtime dll's. If those dll's are already installed, no problem, but like you, if you need to change the oleaut.dll, you need to make a setup for that and reboot. As far as I know, no other way :-(

i think you just need to register the file first... do not overwrite it, you set your app in one directory including the ole..dll file an then register it.. it work in my case..

I don't get it : if it's for you, or for your program which other people will use?
if for you then just do it from MS-DOS, if for other people then use GKsetup (personally I like PDWizard, but you said you need only one file .exe)....I use PDwizard, and then just zip all files that pdwizard made into self-extracting .exe
