ASP Error

Problem:
====================================
Error Type:
Active Server Pages, ASP 0134 (0x80004005)
The object has an invalid ProgID of 'MSWC.MyInfo'.
//global.asa, line 1
====================================


I did a websearch and found that this was previously answered, but I could not find the post. Could someone tell me how to resolve this? I would surely appreciate the help. My email is URL....

ok Guys. I solved the problem. The solution hit me when I realized that the required dll file was a. not registered, and/or b. not there.

I downloaded the myinfo.dll file and copied it to my C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 directory, and from my "RUN" prompt, I registered it like this: regsvr32 myinfo.dll

Worked like a charm.

I've attached the myinfo.dll, (31.2 kb dll -> compressed into a 13.8 kb zip file), file for those of you with the same problem. I just hope it works for you as well as it did for me.

Nice solution! It got me out of trouble, for sure.
BTW, how did you figure out that the dll also needs to be registered?

It took a minute, but it was rather simple. When you add an item to the Windows PATH, it loads at start up as a global item. Meaning you can access it from anywhere without having to go to the directory and run it. A good example is the perl.exe executable (C:\Perl) when added to the PATH environment. You can access it anywhere right?

it's basically the same thing with a .dll file. The error I received was a global call function. So which means the system was not reading it as a global function. You can't add it to the PATH environment, but windows uses global call funtions all the time - they're call Dynamic Link Libraries or .dll files.

If it's not registered, it won't be called. So, you register it. and VOILA!!! no more ASP global error.

Very very Thanks man. My problem is solved now & it's really working now.
