Topic: Availability of ADODB.Command

[Kerry]

I want to determine if the code following works if MS Office is not installed.
I'm particularly interested in ADO COM at this time.
In an XP install I believe MDAC is installed which I think should satisfy this test ..

If my assumption is whacky, I'll have to try another route.

This code just does Registry reads ...
... please post results

Code: [Select]

(DEFUN c:test ()
    (AND (SETQ _ADODLLCLSID (VL-REGISTRY-READ
                                "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\\ADODB.Command\\CLSID"
                            )
         )
         (SETQ
             _ADODLLPath (VL-REGISTRY-READ (STRCAT "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\\CLSID\\"
                                                   _ADODLLCLSID
                                                   "\\InProcServer32"
                                           )
                         )
         )
         (SETQ _ADODLLPath_Qualified (FINDFILE _ADODLLPath))
    )
    (TERPRI)
    (princ _ADODLLCLSID)
    (TERPRI)
    (princ _ADODLLPath)
    (TERPRI)
    (princ _ADODLLPath_Qualified)
    
    (princ)
)
Thanks

Mine is the same as Luis's.  But I think I have office installed, I mean I have all the programs.

[It's Alive!]

Anyone else without Office/Access installed in Win XP ??

I do, but there is no cad on it. Is there something I can look for manually?

edit

the brand new install XP SP2 has the file  C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\ado\msado15.dll
nothing has been installed on the machine but the os.
