'Cannot find DAO350.dll VB6 file error

Question

After installing VB6 successfully on my Windows 8.1 64-bit computer, whenever I try to open the .vbp project .vbp , it gives me the error can't find DAO350.dll file . Googled for every possible solution, but could not find it.

Please help me.

[UPDATE]

[UPDATE1]: It looks something like this:

Answer 1

DA0350.dll must be registered. Try the following:

On the Visual Basic 6.0 CD (or whatever the source of your installation), locate the Dao350.dll file, and then copy it to the c: \ program files \ common files \ microsoft shared \ DAO directory. (The Dao350.dll file is located in the \ os \ system folder on the Visual Basic 6.0 CD.)

To register this file, click the Start button, select Run, and then enter or paste the following line:

Regsvr32 "c: \ program files \ common files \ microsoft shared \ DAO \ Dao350.dll"

Update:

VB6TMPL.TLB is probably not installed for your current user. Try running Visual Basic as an administrator and / or try the following: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/262976/en-us

On the Visual Basic 6.0 CD-ROM (or any other installation source), locate the Dao350.dll file and copy it to the C: \ Program Files \ Microsoft Visual Studio \ VB98 directory.

After applying this hotfix. Visual Basic 6 can now run successfully on your computer.
