  error '800a01ad' ActiveX component can't create object

  Jul 21, 2011 08:14 AM|LINK

  hi,

  I have a VB6 DLL used in a classic ASP page. On browsing this page it gives "error '800a01ad' ActiveX component can't create object" on Server.CreateObject statement. VB6 DLL makes ADO calls to access the database. My OS is Windows Server 2003 32 bit. IIS 6.0

  I have registered the DLL using regsvr32. The same ASP page is working fine on another server which is Win2K.

  Please help.

  Thanks.
