I have an application developed by a third party which is written in VB.
It's a 32bit application and the missing DLL's are
olepro32.dll
and ieshims.dll
Where do I obtain these from? I want to download direct from Microsoft NOT a third party.
Using dependancywalker I have managed to sort some of the missing files. Putting
c:\windows\syswow64 in the path helped for olepro32.dll.
I found a copy of ieshims.dll on the system and copied that to the application path.
Now dependancy walker is showing:
Error: At least one module has an unresolved import due to a missing export function in an implicitly dependent module.
Error: Modules with different CPU types were found.
Warning: At least one module has an unresolved import due to a missing export function in a delay-load dependent module.
Now what? I see a long list of modules with a mixture of x64 listed in red and x86 showing black
Solved. It was caused by Data Execution Prevention.

Which version of VB, and what OS are you trying to run the application on? The VB6 runtime (supporting files for running VB 6 applications) are included in Windows Vista and 7 (and probably earlier), and you can download them here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/192461.
