2006 Hole Wizard-Crashes Every Time
2006 Hole Wizard-Crashes Every Time
(OP)
2006 Hole wizard is crashing SW every time.
Insert > Features > Hole > Wizard
Can Anyone else repeat this bug before I contact the VAR?
I am on a Clean install from the discs, latest graphics card driver, and my system is very stable. There is not a need to troubleshoot my rig.

Do you get the same effect if you use the HW icon?
Are you preselecting a placement point?

HW Icon produces crash. With or without a preselection creates a crash. It appears to be full on bug. But no one can repeat this finding it looks like i'm SOL.

I tried repair. No Help.
I uninstalled, cleaned the regitry, and reinstalled, Making Sure, Like I did the first time, that Symantec Was disabled. I still crash. I ran the software in OpenGL mode and obtained the same results.
PDMAdmin,
Manufacturer: NVIDIA Corporation
Card: Quadro FX 3000/AGP/SSE2
Driver: 6.14.10.6722 (this is the one recomended by SW), not the latest, 77.65, supplied by NVIDIA.
I have used the Problem Capture utility and sent this one off to the VAR.
Its funny cause I really don't use the hole wizard much, but today it was pretty essential for some custom knurled, threaded, and counterbored inserts created for use with a mold I have made. I planned on finishin up the design and creating the mechanical drawings and sending it off hours ago. I can do what I need without the HW, but man, what a drag of an afternoon trying to fix this.
I'll let you know what comes back from the VAR and SW.

MSADO15.dll is improperly registered.
Bring up cmd and cd to
C:\PROGRAM FILES\COMMON FILES\SYSTEM\ADO\
type regsvr32 MSADO15.dll
I get LoadLibrary failed.
Even though my antivirus is disabled something on the network here is preventing this from loading. I have been so busy I have not had time to disconect from the network and spend the time to do a complete reinstall following this procedure provided by SW.
Download the latest anti-virus signature file.
Disconnect computer from the network
Scan the computer for Viruses – take action if any are found Set the anti-virus system to not start on reboot Reboot the computer Install SolidWorks Reboot the computer Set the anti-virus system to start on reboot Reboot the computer Reconnect the computer to the network.

I used the dependency walker http://www.dependencywalker.com/
to trace the dependencies of msado15.dll and found that msdart.dll had an implicit dependancy error. I was able to replace the file with another msdart.dll from another machine and resolved that problem. MPR.DLL still gives me this error: Warning: At least one module has an unresolved import due to a missing export function in a delay-load dependent module. When attempting to replace the file with one from another machine (diferent version) It was to no avail.
It is a problem when you create Software that relies on certain preregistered dll's. It is a SolidWorks problem and a Microsoft problem. These things must be acounted for in their install sheild wizard.
The Hole wizard will no longer crash the system but now gives this error window: Unable to open master database due to the following error: (nothing shown as error). I tried to reinsert the Default.mdb file I was sent from the VAR a while back when I reported this problem but to no avail.
I downloaded the latest MDAC (Microsoft Database Access Control) 2.81 and tried to see if this updated itself and configure a system that would properly install SW. Nope.
I see that others have had the same problem with 06. If I can't get this I'm going to have to reformat the system or just convice myself that the hole wizard stinks and I don't need it anyway. That would take a while and I've already spent almost a day's worth of time installing and uninstalling. I'm pretty sick of looking at John McEleney's head.
RE: 2006 Hole Wizard-Crashes Every Time
Did you ask you VAR for a new set of disks? The first set I had produced an error message about not being able to find a dll file (not the ones you mention though) on the third disk. I got a replacement for disk three and all went well (and yes Hole Wizard works fine).

RE: 2006 Hole Wizard-Crashes Every Time
In the end it appears to have been a Microsoft problem, but I would warn all users that your hole wizard may not work in XP SP1, or in XP SP2 with any errors in your MDAC .dll's.
Back to work, lots of parts to make....
