Wizard problem

Also posted in Activexcontrol and developers.toolkitode groups.

OK, here's the deal. I recently had to do a Detect and repair of my MSOP2003,
due to some code I had written (my bad). As a result things are not working
as they once did!

My first indication is that some of my wizards in ACCESS no longer work! eg.
Toggle Button, but others do, eg. Command Button.

After some research I found that some files might need to be re-registered
"acwzlib.mde, accwiz.dll, and dao360.dll" in particluar.

Having had an earlier problem with the "Startup Wizard" in the Developers
Extenions that required dao360.dll to be re-registered and having re-tested
the Startup Wizard to see if it still worked after the Detect and repair of
MSO, which it did, that is probably not the problem.

My first question:

Before actually re-registering I thought I'd check the "Active X" to see if
I could find a "Toggle Button" that I could "register". Found several ACCESS
2.0 controls but nothing specific for the "Toggle Button" except a
CommonDialog V6 that I thought might be worth a try. But, when trying to
register, it asks for the name\path to the file, which I don't know. Soooo,
my first question. Is there some reference document that tells the name\path
of the various controls/Active X components?

And my second question:

Upon doing a search for acwzlib.dll I find it in both the System32 and the
OFFICE11 folders. Which one should I re-register?

My third question:

acwzlib.mde, do you really re-register a "mde"? And if so, using the
"regsvr32" syntax?


Hope someone can give me a hand here.

Thanks

You can't register MDEs.

Do the buttons work in a new database? If so, you might want to try
importing everything from your existing database into the new one.

BTW, if you feel you need to post to more than one group (HINT: it's seldom
necessary), please have the courtesy to cross-post (send the one message to
all groups at once), rather than multi-post (send individual messages to
each group). In this way, all responses to your post will be available
together, regardless of what group the responder was in, and the rest of us
won't have to read your post multiple times. (It also uses fewer server
resources)

If you're using Microsoft's web interface to post, you should see an
"Advanced Options" link at the bottom of the page. You can type the names of
the various groups into the Newsgroup box, separating each newsgroup name
with a semicolon.

Douglas,

Thanks for the fast reply. Sorry for the multi posting, know better now! Is
there a way for me to remove the other postings?

As to the problem. created a blank DB, test table and autoform. Still no
Toggle button wizard. I can ofcouse accomplish the same thing using the
Option Group where the wizard still works, but, I just like for everything to
work.

Just did a test on the autoform and see that the Toggle button just has two
values, 0 and -1. Therefore perhaps there is NO wizard necessary and I just
had a short in the headset!

Soooo, that leaves Question 2: Reference for OCX and Question 3: If given
more than one location for a .dll, which one should be re-registered?

Thanks

What happened after you reregistered accwiz.dll, and dao360.dll?

There is no OCX involved.

Are the dates and versions the same for the two dlls? (right-click on the
files in Explorer, and check their properties). The only version of Access I
have on this machine is Access 97, and it uses the System32 one. Hopefully
someone with Access 2003 can check and post back. If not, I'll try and
remember to check from home tonight.

Douglas,

Thanks again for the rapid response. I had a typo in my first post. the dll
name was actually acwiz.dll. the System32 is dated 11/96 Ver. 8.0.0.3432.
OFFICE11 is dated 3/05 Ver. 11.0.6551.0. Sooo, it would make sense to
re-register the latest version (11....) meaning the OFFICE11 version. I guess
that would be the rule to follow in the future, most recent version.

My OCX question was more for reference. Just trying to educate myself.
Thanks again for the help. I will mark your response as helpful/correct but
will check back if you have any additional thoughts.

Thanks again,
