This happens only on Vista, I assume.

Hi Erich, I followed your instructions and the installation successfully found the correct version of Excel and all RExcel examples worked fine. Thanks.

I still get the following error message:
C\Windows\System32\stdole2.tlb
Unable to register the type library: RegisterTypeLib failed; code 0x8002801C. Error accessing the OLE registry.


Regards

Wayne

Try this one.
It should solve both problems.

Hi Erich, I installed RSrv250_pl2 and got the same error message as before, namely:
C\Windows\System32\stdole2.tlb
Unable to register the type library: RegisterTypeLib failed; code 0x8002801C. Error accessing the OLE registry. It also complained that it could not find an Excel version compatible with RExcel despite the fact that I was using Excel 2007. I manually installed RExcel and also installed rcom. Most of the examples worked but I had no luck getting the "Graphics with Sliders" example to work.

BTW,
the error message from uninstaling R(D)Com i.e.:
Runtime Error (at 11:90)
Internal Error. Cannot call "ISCOMPENENTSELECTED" function during uninstall.
also happens on XP so this is not a vista issue.

Regards

Wayne

Wayne,
can you try using just running this installer

http://rcom.univie.ac.at/download/devel/RSrv250_pl2.exe

and see if you get the problems.
Then we know a little better where to locate the issues.

Erich

Hi Erich and fellow rcom users, I have been doing some testing of the new RAndFriends including the new R 2.7.0 (RAndFriendsSetup2070V20.exe).
I get the folowing error message when trying to install using Vista Ultimate 
edition:

C\Windows\System32\stdole2.tlb
Unable to register the type library: RegisterTypeLib failed; code 0x8002801C. Error accessing the OLE registry. I'm fairly sure the error message relates to the R(D)Com part of the installation. However, if I continue installation by choosing to ignore this message then the installation seems to work fine!

Following a brief websearch I have found a couple of other cases reported where the same error occurs. The file "stdole2.tlb" relates to visual basic. I think the problem relates to the Inno setup installation trying to overwrite the "C\Windows\System32\stdole2.tlb" where the file already exists, see http://www.smurphy.co.uk/board/viewtopic.php?t=1465 and hence why choosing ignore works fine.
I did indeed find that "C\Windows\System32\stdole2.tlb" was already present on 
my machine.

The following article discusses the same error message when using Inno Setup: http://www.vbforums.com/archive/index.php/t-468770.html and points to a solution. I did get another error message when uninstalling R(D)Com server,namely:
Runtime Error (at 11:90)
Internal Error. Cannot call "ISCOMPENENTSELECTED" function during uninstall. but installation seemed to work fine despite this message.

Regards,

Wayne
