Error message

[Anne]

I am running a database developed in Access 2000. One of the users in the
office is using Office 2003 on a Windows 7Business Professional. When he
tries to load the database he gets the following error message. "Your
Microsoft Office Access database or project contains a missing or broken
reference to the file 'dao360.dll' version 5.0." Other users can run the
database fine on Office 2003 but are using Windows XP Professional. How can
I get it to run?

On the non-working computer, MAKE A COPY OF THE DATABASE and open the VBA
editor. On the Tools menu choose References. Note the MISSING label next to
the DAO reference. Uncheck the broken reference and scroll down to find the
DAO version that exists on that computer. It's probably labeled something
like 'Microsoft DAO 3.6 Object Library'. That's what it's called on my Win 7
x64 computer running Office 2007.
