    X-ref and Vista

    Just installed Vista Business as a dual boot this morning and am installing some proggies. Got to Xref and I am getting the message that it cant install because it cant find a certain dll. MSVBVM50.DLL
    Is there a different version for Vista?

    I've noticed that some x86 applications install thier dll files in the wrong directory on Vista x64.

    It's simply fixed though by copying or moving the required dll to the correct location.

      This is the 32 bit version. I couldn't find it on the sys. So I downloaded the file from the web and installed it. Working OK now.
      I realized that since I already have it installed on the xp install I only need a new shortcut to point to it. The missing dll was the stopper.
      This is my office PC and I have the OS and proggies on one partition, Documents on another and READ on another.
      It makes it easy to share the data between the two os's.
      Thanks for the reply

        Hey that dll issue is known to ricoh and MS. It's a download that makes all well and good for xref. Theres a link fron tsc to MS for this... don't have it handy but can find it again if need be.
