When I run the TECA Data400 Sample programs, I receive the error Wrong run-time DLLs. Why?
This is a Visual Basic error indicating the Visual Basic run-time DLLs located on your PC are different than the run-time DLLs used to build the executable program. The TECA Data400 Sample programs were built using Visual Basic 5.0 with Service Pack 2 installed. Service Pack 2 contained a new Visual Basic runtime module. Visual Basic executable programs that are built using SP 2 will receive the ‘Wrong run-time DLL’ message when they are executed on systems with the original VB 5.0 runtime DLLs. To eliminate this error you can either install Service Pack 2 on your development system or you can recompile the executable programs with your existing version of Visual Basic. To recompile the TECA Data400 sample programs, simply start Visual Basic on your PC, open a sample program and select the option to make an executable program. This causes the sample program to use the Visual Basic runtime support that’s installed on your system.
