Hi everyone,

Thanx to the many people who have given me tips and helped me narrow down the problem. Unfortunately, I'm still getting the error. I just got back from the user's desk armed with some version #'s...

These dlls and version are on the user's machine mfc40.dll 4.1.6139

msvcrt40.dll    4.20
oleaut32.dll    2.20.4122
olepro32.dll    5.0.4118

I also noticed the user had mfc42.dll v4.21.7160 and msvcrt.dll v5.00.7128. I copied mfc42.dll v4.21.7303 and msvcrt.dll v5.00.7303 over but it didn't help.

I read in a newsgroup about the -2147417848 (&80010108) Automation Error having something to do with the object reference disconnecting from it's client. This seems to make sense because I noticed the following...

' This line works fine. ( or so it seems )
Set odsCIB = CreateObject("OracleInProcServer.XOraSession")

' This line fails with -2147417848 (&80010108) Automation Error
' I also noticed that "blah" is Nothing.
Set odbCIB = odsCIB.OpenDatabase(....)

It seems like the createobject works, but it losses the reference immediately. Any hints as to why this might happen? Or better yet, what I can do to fix this?

Thanx in advance
