Input History not avalaible

Recently i try to figure out why my auto fill or input history not displayed after i had installed new SAP Gui Lagon, after few doing some Google research , below is the result

1) change the sap gui logon setting
2) Reinstall MADC

Solution for number two is working for me and my system using windows XP sp3.

Below is the guide taken from this site

I had a customer that just couldn’t get MDAC to work under XP. Reinstalling XP SP3 didn’t work. Microsoft doesn’t make anything available to reinstall MDAC individually. So it’s a complete nightmare to fix it. Luckily, I was able to solve the issue with these steps:

1. Click Start > Run and type %windir%\inf and click OK.

2. Right-click mdac.inf and select Install.

This is where the nightmare started for me. I didn’t have any of the files below. I had to copy the OLE DB, msadc, Ole DB and Binaries folders from another computer and place them in the C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\ folder. If you are missing the servicepackfiles folder, you will have it after you reinstall XP Service Pack 3. You can also just extract the files from the SP3 file by using the windowsxp-kb936929-sp3-x86-enu.exe –x command.

3. When prompted for each of the following files, try to browse and locate them in the directories specified.

  • adcjavas.inc – C:\Windows\servicepackfiles\i386
  • handler.reg – C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\msadc
  • MDACRdMe.htm – C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\Ado. I had to rename MDACReadme.htm to MDACRdMe.htm first.
  • oledbjvs.inc – C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\Ole DB
  • mssoap1.dll – C:\Program Files\Common Files\MSSoap\Binaries
  • mssoapr.dll – C:\Program Files\Common Files\MSSoap\Binaries

After all these steps, MDAC was working again.
