   | Never mind my previous question.   After numerous attempts, I've   
   | finally gotten Visual Studio 6 up and running on my new Win XP Pro   
   | machine.   
   |   
   | I'm not sure why the following worked, but it did.  I manually   
   | registered Dao350.dll via the regsvr32 command and then I deleted all   
   | the non-system files that were on the machine because of the failed   
   | installs.  The next time I ran the install package, everything went   
   | through fine.

   Oh is that all it was, I thought everyone knew that already. Of course   
   you have to re-register Dao350.dll and delete all non-system files from   
   failed installs. Goes without saying... :)   
      
   | It was just a shot in the dark, but it worked.   
      
   Sweet. Good instincts are invaluable.

   | Best of wishes for the new year to everyone.

   Ditto.
