DAO problem
I just downloaded a version of Golf Score Recorder and ran into a problem where it seemed to fully install without any errors but when I ran it for the first time it complained about not having DAO installed and prompted me for a location for DAO.msi. I ended up unregistering and reregistering DAO at one point to see if it would help and it did which made me very happy.
So if anyone else runs into this, here's something to try that worked for me:
- Find the latest DAO DLL on your machine. For me, this was located in the following directory:
c:\program files\common files\microsoft shared\dao\dao360.dll
- Unregister it by typing this at the command line:
regsvr32 /u "c:\program files\common files\microsoft shared\dao\dao360.dll"
- Register it:
regsvr32 "c:\program files\common files\microsoft shared\dao\dao360.dll"
Try rerunning the app then and hopefully it'll work just fine.
