I have got an error when running a C++ (Visual Studio 6) program which calls a method (bolCheckInput()) from a VB 6 dll. The error is: "Unhandled exception in TestPassword.exe (RICHED20.DLL): 0XC0000005: Access Violation". The code portion in VC++ is as follows: _stsclsFInputPasswordPtr pPassword; hr = pPassword.CreateInstance(__uuidof(stsclsFInputPassword)); switch (hr) { case S_OK: { VARIANT_BOOL password; password = pPassword->bolCheckInput("Communication Server"); pPassword.Release(); CoUninitialize(); return(password == VARIANT_TRUE ? TRUE : FALSE); break; } When the vb dll is runing in debug mode, no error occurs, But if the…

Hi, Since our recent domain controller migration from NT to Win2k3 R2 we cannot get acess any longer to the Properties/Sharing of any files/folders even as Domain Administrator, unless we open a session locally on the machine on which we want to manage any sharing... Ex : a shared folder on computer X can only be controlled using a administrator connection open locally (either as domain administrator or local machine administrator) but cannot be controlled from a session open on any other machine connected to the network even if the folder apperas in the explorer on this machine (right clic on this folder then Properties only displays the "General" &…

I'm trying to install SNMP on a Windows 2003/SP2 box. During the Setup process, it asks for the Windows Server 2003 CD because it needs to copy certain .dll files. Sometimes it asks for a Service Pack 2 CD. And it doesn't ask for the same .dll file every time. In either case, I put the appropriate CD in the drive and point the wizard to the file it's looking for (the file is always there), but it keeps coming back and saying it cannot copy the file. An example: right now it's asking for the snmpmib.dll on the Windows 2003 Sever CD. When I put the CD in and point it directly to the file it just keeps coming back and asking for the file again. I tried making …

Re: TS admin mode Vera, I really need your help. I have the Teminal Server running on Remote Administration Mode. Is buying one CAL only one way to switch this mode to the application mode? Does Application mode make any difference for the customer who uses the Terminal Server as a Application server at his network? The root of the problem is the VPN Cisco Client which is perfectly working at the console connection, but requires a few additional steps when running on the Terminal session... Any help would be highly appreciated... Nick nshmakov@screamsavers.com.au "Vera Noest [MVP]" wrote: > Remote admin mode gives you a maximum of 2 norma…

When I put in an install CD, Windows XP brings up a window with the contents of the CD instead of running the install program. I've tried checking the Registry entries a Microsoft Knowledge Base article says to check when you have autoplay problems and I ran a autoplay fix program I downloaded from Microsoft's site, but the problem is still there. Any ideas?

I installed Vista Ultimate on my drive 0: I had backed EVERYTHING up on drive 1: which was partitioned into 3 drives. Good install, but now drive 1: is missing along with the 3 partitions that were on the drive. Mind you drive 1: is a separate hard drive and I did not format it. the only drive that was formated with a clean install was drive 0: how do I recover from this? -- No signature, just generic

There are 2 programs from same company listed in the control panel "Add/Remove" list. If you click "Remove" on either of them it will launch the msiexec.exe followed by product code to uninstall the program. I see the uninstall string entries for one of the programs in registry: Local Machine\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall. For the other program, I don't see it listed at all in the "Uninstall" list, even though that program definitely calls the msiexec.exe when user clicks "Remove" from "Add/ Remove" list. Is there any other place to get the path to where the uninstall path of that program is?

Needed a cheap way to create quick hardcopy on the road, so bought a SiPix Printer A6 on eBay. All eBay vendor listings state it will work with all WIN OS's thru XP. However, the install disk only has drivers thru 2000. One vendor's eBay listing has a link to download the 'XP Driver', did that, but it's just thesame 2000 driver that's on the CD. Started to install that and got the XP gloom and doom warnings 'Not Signed', 'Not for XP', etc., so I stopped. My questions, will installing a WIN2000 driver damage XP? Will it work? If not, does anyone have another souce I might look to for a driver for this printer? Tried to find the mfgr's website, but no …
