Missing: DirectX 7 for visual basic type library - predators - 24-09-2009
Alright so I used to use MS back on windows xp with vb6, and I had no problems running the source. I remember I needed library files and vb runtime files or something. Right now, I have vb6 installed on a vista machine and I installed the directx sdk, and vb6 runtime files. However, it says I am missing directx7 and 8 for visual basic type libraries. I am using the new version of MS that was converted to directx 8. Does anyone have the installer for all the files I need for dx7 & or 8? Or does anyone know a way to get this working? Thank you

You need to register dx7vb.dll in Windows.

ah, well i had to download dx7vb.dll from a site, separately because i could not find it on my computer. Is that really the only file i need or is there other ones as well

It should be the only one you need to fix the DX7 error. Depending if you're missing other Dlls or Ocx files you may have to download some other ones as well.
