"error in loading DLL"

[rhodesengr]

I upgraded from Office 2003 to Office 2007. I have not been able to get Access 2007 to work right since the upgrade. When I try to use wizards (like combo box, or command button) I get the error "error in loading DLL".

I looked in the forums and found the issue. The solution is to run these commands

Regsvr32.exe "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\DAO\Dao360.dll"

Regsvr32.exe "C:\Program Files\Common Files\system\ado\Msado15.dll"

I did this from my computer's admin account and it fixed the problem if I run Access from the admin account. Howere, I still get the errors in my normal user account. I must have Access running from my user account due to rules where I work.

If you don't have to work with both Office 2003 and Office 2007, uninstall 2003 and install 2007 or in your case probably reinstall 2007. It is possible to run 2003 and 2007 together on one machine. Just don't install them in the same directory.

when I upgraded, I had it uninstall 2003 so I only had 2007. I ditched 2007 about 10 minutes ago and went back to 2003.

Good choice!
