ARD Installation Test Program
The program TestARDInstall has been provided to help with trouble shooting with new and updated installations.
Since every machine is different, it is sometimes difficult to exactl 24524n136y y pinpoint installation errors. The test program makes it easier to locate the precise reason why the software has failed.
1) copy the TestARDInstall.dvb file into a suitable location on your machine where you can find it easily (c:\ is the easiest, but not very tidy!)
2) Open Land Desktop and select a project.
3) Run the command vbaload. From the form, browse to where you copied TestARDInstall select it and press Open
4) Click 'enable macros' when prompted
5) Run the command vbarun and click Run
6) This programs tests the installed Land Desktop libraries and then displays a form to test the ARD libraries.
Click on the spreadsheet and enter some data
Click on the Test Picture box
Click on the Test Vertical
If all these tests succeed, then the basic libraries for ARD have been installed.
Missing common folder?
The only other problem is that there is no common folder available.
Using this program
This program is generally only run when there is a problem with the install.
What can happen is that an error message is displayed and the program goes into 'debug' mode.
Take a screen dump of the debug information and email it to us!
Check the Program References
There is one other thing that may need checking.
Click on the Tool item on the top menu bar for VBA. Then select 'References'.

Using the Program Step by Step
There are other ways of using this test program.
When the program fails, press End, rather than 'Debug'
Open the code Modules folder (on the left hand side) and double click on AutocadStartUp
In the source code window, click on the first line of the program (which is
On Error Resume Next)
And then press F8.
This will run through the program line by line. This is sometimes useful when trying to establish an installation problem.
