Run-Time Error '326' displaying a form with ANY picture

[Keith Kovala]

Ok, this is a fun one. I've already looked at KB Article Q190477 regarding
this error, but it's not helping. Here are the particulars, application
works fine on 4 computers when loaded on local HD, but when the application
is loaded on a shared network drive a "Run-Time error '326': Resource with
the identifier 'VERSION' not found" is displayed. It is truly odd because I
can run this same application from a local HD just fine on the computer, but
if you attempt to run it from a networked drive this error comes up, but
only if you go to a form that has a picture on it. Now all pictures are
loaded using the following type of syntax: imgLogo.Picture =
LoadPicture(App.Path & "\rrlogo.gif") and this error occurs regardless of
the image file type, I have a gif, an ico and a bmp that all do this.
Originally I thought this problem was being caused by default because I was
not using code to load the pictures, but just assigning the filename as the
.picture property at design time so no runtime assignment was necessary.
But even with it being done at run-time this error occurs, and it's not just
with an .ico file. Any input or insight would be greatly appreciated.

Keith,

Is this a Novell network drive? I have found problems with using App.XXX
when the exe was on a Novell network drive and was not in the 8.3 format.
Try changing your app name to 8.3 and see if that resolves it.

Excellent call. It is a Novelll Network, I will give it a shot!
