TTS DataDisc Pt network install

[LeightonJames]

Hi All

Having major issues getting this software to run from a network location. I have installed the software using the Network option on the CD and then inserted the key.

When running the Software I get the following error:

Could not load frmMain (339)

I noticed that the program requires some shared files to be on the Local Hard Drive and some registry keys to be imported for it to run so to achieve this I have cobbled together the following batch file to launch the software:

@echo off
regedit /s n:\DataLogger\tts.reg
XCOPY N:\DataLogger\Shared "c:\Program Files\Abington\Shared" /Y /I /Q
regsvr32 /s "c:\Program Files\Abington\Shared\Abdat.ocx"
regsvr32 /s "c:\Program Files\Abington\Shared\abUseful2.ocx"
regsvr32 /s "c:\Program Files\Abington\Shared\oik32.ocx"
regsvr32 /s "c:\Program Files\Abington\Shared\AbWMI.dll"
cls
echo Launching DataDisc Explore
echo Please Wait
echo.
echo.
echo This window will close when you
echo quit the DataDisc Application
N:\DataLogger\DatadiscPt.exe explore

This has solved some of the problems but I still get the above error. Does anyone have any ideas?

Cheers

Did this ever get fixed?

If i'm honest, i can't remember. I work at various schools and i'm back there on Monday morning so i will take a look at it then.

Sorry for the double post, Still having this issue.

Tried to package the software into a portable exe with no joy too.

Spoke to TTS and they are going to get back to me.

I also think you will need to install the drivers locally on each PC .. everytime I plugged the USB>Serial cable in a new PC .. it asked for drivers..

Sorry to dig up an old thread but I'm having this issue on local installs. Spoke to TTS and they suggested installing Microsoft Office to rectify the issue. I've installed Office 2010 32-Bit Pro Plus, without entering a key and this has resolved the error!! TTS couldn't tell me which individual component of Office fixes the issue, so ive had to install the entire suite on machines that just need Office 2010 Starter on them. Talk about using a sledghammer to crack a walnut!

Does anyone have a simpler/neater solution?

you may also notice that the latest (windows 7 compatible version) has a built in 30 second delay on load! It's such a pain. I found my ollld version that was on the CD for my XP clients and used that. I've not been able to WinstallLE it either had to manually install it onto every science laptop.

At a guess I would say it's probably some of the VBA components, most likely the common controls library.

Try downloading this file: http://activex.microsoft.com/controls/vb6/mscomct2.cab and extract it anywhere, then right-click on the inf file and select 'Install'.
