Adding file extensions for Access

[Marty]

MS-Access was installed after Excel, Word and Power
Point. I am trying to import an Excel file into an access
database. However, the Excel extension type (.XLS) is not
one of the choices in the drop down window.

Please forward the instructions to include additional
file/data base type(s) to the list of Access import
choices.

Thank you

Try re-registering the dll files like this:
Start Run
regsvr32 msexcl35.dll
regsvr32 msxbse35.dll
regsvr32 mspdox35.dll
regsvr32 mstext35.dll

Use 40 instead of 35 for A2K and 2002.
