frontend login error

[panninos]

Whenever I open up Teststand, I get an error message (-17004) which states that step login of 'Login Logout' in FrontEndCallbacks.seq could not load frontend.dll.  I checked and made sure that frontend.dll was in the proper directory.  I am trying to run the evaluation Teststand 2010 SP1 software on a Windows 7 SP1 computer. Any ideas?

It maybe that some of the DLL's on which front end dll depends is not found.

Use dependency walker tool (depends.exe) to find out the missing files.

I ran the dependency walker and I got 2 warnings.  The first was that one load delay-load dependency module was not found (ieshims.dll).  So I then went ahead and copied ieshims.dll to the necessary directory.  That warning then went away.  The second warning was that one module has an unresolved import due to a missing export function in a delay-load dependent module (ieframe.dll).  The second warning did not go away when I copied ieshims.dll to the necessary directory.
