the VBA Run-time error ‘Automation error Library not registered.' then between your VBA project's references there is a reference to a file that is "MISSING". This is the case when for example a DLL, OCX or another VBA project used while vba automation error catastrophic failure developing in your application is not installed on the computer the application is being

used. Obviously, you should never distribute applications without making sure that the components used are available on the target computers, but

there are cases in which VBA takes care of resolving the problem automatically, one example are the Microsoft Office applications, where each version installs in a separate folder containing a number (for instance for Office http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/msoffice_excel-msoffice_custom/8002801d-automation-error-library-not-registered/5717123b-4c0b-4a3d-8bb5-7d0fe84e6ac9 2003 (Release 11) you have C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office11) In general, each reference is correctly mapped to the right -and probably also most recent- component, since the GUID of each application does not change. But there are cases where the component does not correctly remap (because the GUID has changed or because it is not available). If this occurs, then you will see such "MISSING" reference. To correct the problem, open the VB-IDE, go https://dutchgemini.wordpress.com/2011/01/05/vba-run-time-error-automation-error-library-not-registered/ to your project references (Tools -> References), either scroll the list and put or remove a checkmark in front of the desired component or browse for a file on your disk. Ah, if you have access to the project, otherwise you're out of luck. Tip: before you distribute your application, run a compile (Debug -> Compile). If there is a missing reference, VBE may make this problem evident by issuing a compile error "Can't find project or library" on a function that you know is correct (I had that on the String() function, not to confuse with VBA.String()). When you close the compiler error, VBE will open the references dialog for you. When the ‘Automation error Library not registered.' triggers on registered libraries The funny thing is that a missing reference impacts on your code when addressing the other references in the project. Suppose you want to set a reference to "Visual Basic for Applications" then you would write the following statement ("VBA" is the codename for this reference): Dim oReference As Object
Set oReference = ThisWorkbook.VBProject.References("VBA") Using a named index with missing references triggers the error. However, if you use a numeric index to obtain a reference object, the error does not trigger. Dim oReference As Object
Set oReference = ThisWorkbook.VBProject.References(1) '

P: 16 FelixS I have running one application (.mde file) of MS access 2003, quite https://bytes.com/topic/access/answers/863061-automation-error-library-not-registered a long time on Windows XP, - it was working well. Recently on my PC was installed SAS, after that while running my .mde application I am getting message "Automation Error -- Library not registered". I have found in WEB one recommendation - register module msadox.dll. Regsvr32.exe "C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\ado\msadox.dll" Doesn't help. The same module is working well on my laptop, not affected by installation any new software. Any suggestions?

To do this place any of your forms in design view and go to the code editor. Once you are in the Code view, go to the Access command menu, and select Tools> References, checking for any missing references. Feb 9 '09 #2 reply P: 16 FelixS Well, How I know which library is not connected (referenced). Usually there are only 5-6 out of many available.In fact, I have found vba automation error already that error occurs while creating new folder by Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") ... fs.CreateFolder (path) ... Feb 9 '09 #3 reply Expert 100+ P: 1,923 puppydogbuddy when you open up the references library it will tell you which one (if any) are missing. You will see the words Missing beside the missing library reference. Feb 9 '09 #4 reply P: 16 FelixS In my version of MS Visual Basic, when I go to Tools->References I see the Box with names of libraries and box for ticking before each name. No "MISSING" words. In the list of available references now there are 5 ticked ones, The others are empty. First of all, I think, this was also before it happens. Besides, I have no idea, what another library I need Feb 9 '09 #5 reply Expert 100+ P: 1,923 puppydogbuddy I just realized that you are looking at your mde file which has the code stripped out. You need to use your mdb file to determine which file is missing. In order to make a determination using an mde file, you would have to embed reference checking code behind a module that you could call from a button on a form. Feb 9 '09 #6 reply P: 16 FelixS no - no -no. I am exercising with *.mdb original file. Ones more, when copying it to another machine, where SAS is not installed, I can observe it working as expected.
