Norm Ivey Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 I copied my software from one computer to another (write sequences on one; play on another). This has worked fine in the past. When I try to save on the second computer I get this error message:Error saving file...do you want to try to save to another name?Detail: Automation errorThe specified module could not be found.I have already tried updating the software from LOR. I have 2.5.2.Everything works as it should on the original computer. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Hmmm... "automation error" typically means that something is required but isn't installed, or can't be accessed, or something like that. When saving a sequence, we use a Microsoft thing called "MSXML". Perhaps that's not installed.Specifically, we use MSXML 4. You can download the MSXML 4 installer from the following page on Microsoft's website:http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=3144B72B-B4F2-46DA-B4B6-C5D7485F2B42&displaylang=enI would suggest downloading that installer, then closing all of your running programs, especially LOR programs, and trying to install it.

Norm Ivey Posted October 21, 2009 Author Share Posted October 21, 2009 Thanks for the tips. I installed MSXML and removed LOR and re-installed it. I still get the same error message. Any other ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norm Ivey Posted October 21, 2009 Author Share Posted October 21, 2009 I did a google on this error. I worked through a couple of false leads, but this very simple response seemed to fix it--just in case someone else hits the same snag.[i]Can you try using the following command from 'Run'regsvr32 scrrun.dll[/i]http://www.archivum.info/microsoft.public.excel.programming/2008-08/00880/RE:_Error:_quot_The_specified_module_could_not_be_found_quot_but_DLL_is_in_pla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
