Mhh...2003 server to desktop conversion. Could it be you are missing a dll. I have used a tool called Dependency Walker. It's reports the following dll dependencies: > > c:\windows\system32\GDI32.DLL > c:\windows\system32\WINSPOOL.DRV > c:\windows\system32\ADVAPI32.DLL > c:\windows\system32\OLEAUT32.DLL > c:\windows\system32\MSVCRT.DLL > c:\devel\vr\dwg2vector\CIMAGE.DLL > c:\windows\system32\MSVCP60.DLL > Does that shed any light?
