application-defined or object-defined error

[Keith]

I just installed Office 2007. I left Office 2000 installed on my machine as
well. I am having a problem with the subform wizard. When I click finish,
after a while I get the following message:

application-defined or object-defined error

This problem is occurring in both Access 2007 and Access 2000. Does anyone
have an idea as to what is causing this?

Thanks

I guess I'll just answer my own question. I discovered that I needed to
re-register dao360.dll using regsvr32. That seemed to resolve my issue.

Thanks for posting your solution. It is rather interesting that
reregistering DAO 3.6 would fix the problem with A2007.

Well, doesn't A2K7 use DAO 3.6 for MDB files?

I would've thought A2007 would use the ACE DLLs. Which, BTW, is DAO
12. See C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE12 for
the set of DLLs if you have A2007 installed.

ACE being the updated name for Jet.

Is it not the case that MDB files are Jet 4? And that it uses a
slightly-altered version of the DAO library based on DAO 3.6? My
understanding is that there is a separate DAO library for the ACE
(i.e., the successor to Jet 4), but just thinking about it, maybe
there's a single DAO library that covers both versions of Jet?

I'm interested in finding out about this. Can you (or someone else
with A2K7) do a little investigating?

One question: what happens when you open an A2K3-created MDB? Does
it retain the DAO 3.6 reference or silently substitute the new DAO?
