In Access 2007, trying to import a legit dbf file which has a file name
greater than 8 characters produces an error. Going to External Data, Import,
More, dBASE file if you select a legit dbf file with a file name greater than
8 characters, it gives you an error "The Microsoft Access database engine
could not find the object 'zeroreserves05q5'. Make sure the object exists
and that you spell its name and the path correctly." The error code is
503011. If that exact same dbf file is simply renamed to 8 or fewer
characters, it imports perfectly. I have not been able to find anything in
the knowledge base about this or the error code. This occurs every time
under the above conditions on multiple computers using Access 2007. This
does not occur using Access 2003.
Has anyone else discovered this? Any solutions?
