======================================================================
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0 SP4, used with:
    - Microsoft Visual Basic Professional Edition for Windows, version 6.0 
    - Microsoft Visual Basic Enterprise Edition for Windows, version 6.0 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

In Visual Basic 6.0, with the Visual Studio 6.0 Service Pack 4 (SP4) installed,
if you compile and run a localized program that contains an intrinsic Data
control with the DatabaseName property set to a Microsoft Access 2000 database,
the following error message appears:

   Cannot Find Installable ISAM

The problem does not occur inside the integrated development environment (IDE).

This problem only applies to non-English versions of Microsoft Windows and Visual
Basic. There are many other possible causes for this error. For additional

CAUSE
=====

Visual Studio 6.0 SP4 did not ship the DLLs that contain the localized resources
for Microsoft Access 2000 (for example, vb6it.dll for Italian). As a
consequence, the compiled localized program loads the Visual Studio Service Pack
3 (SP3) version of these DLLs and throws the error message in the "Symptoms"
section.

The program works properly in the IDE, because the IDE (VB6.exe) uses a localized
VB6IDE.dll, which was included in Visual Studio 6.0 SP4.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the
beginning of this article.

This bug has been fixed in Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0 Service Pack 5 (SP5).

To download service pack 5, see the Visual Studio Product Updates page on the
