Many moons ago i posted that 3 was being requested in my Package & Deployment
PDW attempts.
Still is, but know, I think I have stumbled on where this is coming from.
Hopefully someone will know what to do. I certainly do not.
Ignore was the suggestion before.

While pondering a problem I opened Project\References and was looking
through those checked and ran into this:

Microsoft VBScript Regualr Expressions 5.5

Yes, I am using RegEx.
This I notice this
Location: C:\Windows\system32\vbscript.dll\3

Ah ha! There is that pesky 3

How did that get there?
Is that correct?
I could understand /3 (an arg) but what is /3 ?

For chuckles, I did a Browse to
C:\Windows\system32\vbscript.dll
and accepted it and got
Microsoft VBScript Globals

So what do i do?
Leave it all alone, since everything seems to work.
Remove the Reference with \3 and use the new one? Don't think so.

To complicate matters more, I also found
Microsoft VBScript Regular Expressions 1.0
Location: C:\Windows\system32\vbscript.dll\2

So maybe the PDW just does not know how to handle these?
And maybe some tried to tell me that and I was just too ignorant.

Google is still your friend.

Yes, it refers to another "library" in the DLL.
If you open said DLL in a resource editor, you will see two "TYPELIB"
resources, 1 and 3.

Just registering the DLL normally should allow you to access it.

I have never before seen that notation.
C:\Windows\system32\vbscript.dll\3
That usually means a folder named 3.
Is that unique to VB?
