I know someone who does have the full version of install shield 5.1 but it did not work. I went to the install sheild site and they said they had support for MDAC and DCOM but only in 5.5 It is a strange problem, since the MDAC install should have done the trick but it did not. I installed WIN95 on a test machone 5 times yesterday... Well DAO isn't that DEAD access objects???
