I am trying to install the V3c Outlook Client(Laptop -Offline) on XP Pro with
latest SP, Office 2003 Outlook.

It installs SQL Server 2005 Express OK, however I receive the following
errors in the validation stage:

1. Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition database ( Red (X))
2. The 'SQLOLEDB' provider is not registered on local mackine.Noerror
information available: REGDB_ECLASSNOTREG(0x8004054) (Red (X))

Can anyone point me in the right direction
TIA

Hello Graham,

I think for some reason the registration of a DLL file is not ok anymore or
corrupted. Usually the tool Regsvr32.exe is used to fix these kind of
problems. You could try to fix it the following way:

1. Open a command prompt.
2. Change to the C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\Ole DB folder.
3. Type the following command:
regsvr32 sqloledb.dll
4. The tool should confirm that the DLL is registered successfully.

Best regards,
