eqitems not working
 

I cant get eqitems to work for the life of me. I downloaded eqitems.rar and ODBC_DRIVERS.zip. I am running Win2008 R2 64-bit server. I followed all the instructions. I installed the mysql-connector-odbc-3.51.25-win32.msi. I registered all the .ocx files. After installing the ODBC drivers, I realized they were 32-bit...so I downloaded the 64-bit drivers from oracle and still wont work. I read through all the posts and tried everything that was suggested...
-Ran the register_ocx.bat
-Manually registered each .ocx (regsvr32 a.ocx , etc)
-Ran for %i in (*.ocx) do regsvr32 %i

Here is what I get....

eqitems -- Error in Connecting to the Database - perhaps a missing version field in Variables tables?

eqitems -- Run-time error '-2147024894 (800700002)': Automation error The system cannot find the file specified.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Dumb response, worked for me, turn music off?

Thx...that worked.

Yes, sorry, that is the problem. Win 2008 server does not come with the all standard dll libraries.

Thanks for the tip on turning the music off.
