2000 files in 2003

Hi there,

The scenario is this:

The customer has Access 2000 on Win 2000, developer (me) has Access 2003 on
WinXP.

I'm able to open, debug, etc. the files in 2003 (I didn't convert, just
registered a dao dll (350 I think)). All seems well until I send the new
file back to the customer who gets "Can't find Project or Library".

I'm guessing that by working on the 2000 file in 2003 and saving it I have
performed some kind of implicit conversion to 2003 which can't be converted
back to 2000? - just a guess.

Any suggestions please.

Thanks Arvin but there are no missing refs, and it's not an MDE.

Any other ideas?

Cheers

That particular error is almost always indicative of a missing reference.
Perhaps something on his machine (like the dao350.dll) isn't registered. It
doesn't hurt to try re-registering it.

Also, use the Shift key to avoid any auto-executing code when opening. Have
him open any code window on his system. Go to the Debug menu item and
compile the project. Any offending code will highlight.
