Emerald won't run today, Take III

Didn't see a followup, so perhaps the list bounced me yet again. Last
attempt at this via this forum.....

Emerald was open last night, functioning properly.

I tried to run a batch invoice run this morning. It CREATED the batches
fine, so it said (and an SQL query shows this to be true). However, when I
tried to print the batch, I was told that I did not have logon permissions
to do so! (I was logged on as SA at the time!) "Self," I said to myself,
"it looks like you need to reboot your workstation.

After rebooting, I got "Error loading from file" when trying to load
Emerald. I can't get into Emerald at all now. (I also rebooted the SQL
server at the same time, just in case).

RadiusNT is still running fine, authenticating and accounting. I can run
SQL Enterprise Manager, and view the databases and make queries from this
workstation. Emerald is not installed on any other workstations, but I
imagine that it WOULD work from there.

I believe that a program I installed yesterday overwrote a critical library
needed by Emerald. Which one, I don't know.

Dale, can you tell me which library being replaced could cause this error,
and where I can find the one YOU require, before Friday morning when I have
to finish this billing cycle?

I spoke to the author of the offending program, which DOES do database
accesses of its own, and he claimed these are the DLL files (all *.DLL)
that he installs:

MSVBVM50
OLEAUT32
OLDPRO32
ASYCFILT
MSC40
MSJET35
MSJTR35
MSJINT35
VBAJET32
VBAR332
MSRD2X35
MSREPL35
VB5DB
DAO350
COMCAT

Emerald 2.1.11 on Win95.

Thanks!
