Err 429 VB6

PDFCreator PDFCreator English
1

I originally used version 0.9.7 and got my VB 6.0 application working with pdfCreator.  When I downloaded version 0.9.9 I got the following error. 

err 429: ActiveX component can't create object.

If I rebuild the application after downloading 0.9.9, it then works. 

Is this going to happen for every update? 

Is there any way to get around this or do I have to tell my users to never update pdfCreator? How can I turn off the checking for updates?

Hi

 

When you compile an ActiveX component (which PDFCreator is) with new methods / properties it creates automaticaly new GUID entries. There is a way to change this behavior but it's not recomanded (in my eyes).

How?

In compile settings, you need to set "binary compatibility" but like I said before: not recommanded (The VB project I mean is the PDFCreator project).
