cannot load idapi service library error during connect

Question: I try to connect to my Remote Server and I get a "Cannot load IDAPI service library" error message on the client machine. What is wrong? Answer: This error is being propagated from the server where the actual problem resides. This error is a good indication that IDPROV32.DLL has not been properly installed on the server. Copy this file to the BDE directory on the server and register it through the use of a proper tool like TRegSvr.exe or RegSrv32.exe.
