Leon,

FIRST- Was D2 ever working correctly?  If so, what was the last
thing you installed or did before the message came up?
SECOND - Check your hard disk for errors.

Yes D2 had work properly.

I installed several programs (shareware) to se if it was something that
I could use, I had a strong suspicion that the problem lies there.

I had also checked the hard disk for errors (nothing)

I had reinstalled WIN95 and D2, and it works now, but I would like to
now what went wrong so when it happens again (Murphys law) I can fix it
without reinstalling Win95.

Du you have any idea what went wrong.

Leon

PS. Thank you for answering my cry for help.

Yes. I have.

The same happend here. By installing a SW program, a couple of DLL's will be
overwritten. This might cause the problem.

If you uninstall, some other files will be deleted. This might cause the
problem.

With this f*&^%g way, I have already blown 5 windows setups. Installing and
Uninstalling can lead to all kinds of problems, like No licence for OCX'en. No
licence for Access, etc.

If the lib is unloadable, it most of the time means, that a DLL in unloadable.

Nice Idea DLL and OCX, but it costs a lot of time.
