error on application startup (Advantage/RB)

rbuser

Hi All
I am trying to load support for Advantage in report builder with Delphi 7.
I am using Advantage 8.0.0.11 and Report Builder version 10.04. When I try
to run an application, I get the message "The procedure entry point
@Adsdata@TAdsDataSet@GetFieldClass$qqr12Db@TFieldType could not be located
in the dynamic link library adsd70.bpl"
I have try uninstalling advantage and report builder and re-installing both,
but still have the same problem. Any ideas how to get adsd70 installed
correctly to get rid of the error?
Thanks
Stan

Hi Stan,

Are you trying to use or install the Advantage DADE plugin? If so, this
error could indicate that you are trying to use a compiled version of one of
the ReportBuilder packages or files that was not compiled with the Advantage
package you have. Simply changing your library path to \RBuilder\Source and
being sure the daADS.pas file is in you path should fix the issue. The DADE
advantage files can be found in the \RBuilder\Demos\4. EndUser
Databases\Advantage\1. Native\... directory.

Hi Nico

You pointed me in the right direction and I found an old copy of the
library. Deleted it and now it works fine.

Thanks
