401433 2005-11-02 17:58:00 I have upgraded from 98SE to xp, and one program - Imagineer Technical, a low level Intergraph Computer Draughting package, won't open. The program is v1, dated 1996. I understand that later versions are named "Smart Sketch".

It has apparently installed correctly, but at start up I get the message:

The ordinal 1 could not be located in the dynamic link library OLEAUT32.dll. I can open the help files but not the main program.

There are several copies of this file on the computer all but 1 on my old, soon to be removed HDD.

Can I do anything except buy an upgrade or use a dual boot system?
