VB Forum / General / August 2004Help: Microsoft Data Formatting Object Library
My project has a reference to Microsoft Data Formatting Object Library, I didn't add it?? I can remove the reference, recompile without a problem and save the project. However, when I reopen the project the reference returns, any ideas on what is happening are appreciated. Thanks, Regards, Chuck Faranda This is because some other components you may have added to your project may be referencing this dll... this may also happen if you are using databound controls -- Gaurav Creations > My project has a reference to Microsoft Data Formatting Object Library, I > didn't add it??

You have accidentally set the DataFormat property of a label control or some other control. Changing this will cause this reference to be added automatically. You'll have to find the control with the problem and you'll have to remove the control and add a new one to replace it (IIRC you can't reset the property - anyone know differently?)

Here's how I took care of the problem... In a Text Editor, ie: NotePad, load the Form Code, *.frm file, and look for the following--> VERSION 5.00 Begin VB.Form Form1 Caption = "Form1" ClientHeight = 3135 ClientLeft = 60 ClientTop = 405 ClientWidth = 4680 LinkTopic = "Form1" ScaleHeight = 3135 ScaleWidth = 4680 StartUpPosition = 3 'Windows Default Begin VB.Label Label1 Caption = "Label1" BeginProperty DataFormat <<<<<<<<<Starts Here!!! Type = 1 Format = "" HaveTrueFalseNull= 0 FirstDayOfWeek = 0 FirstWeekOfYear = 0 LCID = 1033 SubFormatType = 0 EndProperty<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Ends Here!!! Height = 525 Left = 1740 TabIndex = 0 Top = 1320 Width = 1245 End End Attribute VB_Name = "Form1" Attribute VB_GlobalNameSpace = False Attribute VB_Creatable = False Attribute VB_PredeclaredId = True Attribute VB_Exposed = False Option Explicit If I remember correctly all I did is delete the above lines and that was that.... I know, I know.... M$'s no escape clause... Have a good day... Don |
