I have a problem lies with a meta tag. Below is my code:
<!--METADATA TYPE="TypeLib" NAME="Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.5
Library" UUID="{00000205-0000-0010-8000-00AA006D2EA4}"
VERSION="2.5"-->
This is suppose to set a reference to a MDAC file which will hold many
constants. The error appears on the following line:
oComp.AddParam "@UserID", adVarChar, adParamInput, 100, msUserID
Error message.
Microsoft VBScript runtime (0x800A01F4)
Variable is undefined: 'adVarChar'

I actually narrowed it down to an ADO (MDAC) issue. What I did was
that I included the adovbs.inc file which has all the constants
defined. Next, I ran the application. The error that I received
before went away but I encounter a error executing an ado command.
So, I tried to set the constants on the page and it help but not
entirely because I think this is a MDAC issue.

Can anyone help please?

Thanks!

Your meta tag is probably referring to the wrong version of ADO. see this
page for the correct metadata tag for the version of ADO on your server:

Not without knowing the error.

Be sure you have ADO 2.5 installed and second, you should include that tag
in global.asa but not within the <% %> tags!
Third, do not use both. OR use advbs.inc OR use the metatag...
