VBA & Reference Library

[Anonymous]

I'm doing some (beginning) programming in VBA in AcadMap 2000i, and I
discovered that the reference library for AcadMap had to be manually loaded
(from the VB editor, Tools, References...) in order for the Map components
to be made available.

Is there a way of loading the reference library programmically so that when
I give the completed VBA program out to production I won't have to add the
note that the reference library needs to be loaded before it will work?

Hi Eric,

I think that once you have loaded the reference library into your VBA
project, the reference is saved in the dvb. When the application is executed
on a production machine, the dvb file looks for the linked libraries on the
local machine. As long as the production machine is running Map, the
reference library should be present and registered and the application will
find them.

So to summarize:
Load the Map component library when you start a new VBA project.
Write your code.
Save the project to a dvb file.
Distribute the dvb file to your production machines.
You are done.

The only time the reference library needs to get loaded is when you start a
new project as it is not loaded by default.Hope this helps clarify things.

Cheers,
Will
