Register OLE server

[Rick]

I have an Access 97 database that uses ole objects from MS
word. Everything worked fine until I updated to Office
2000. When I installed Office 2000, I found out that I
could not use the database without updating it and saving
it in the 2000 format. Since this database is used at work
and they have Office 97, I couldn't make any revisions to
the database without making it unusable to everyone else.
Therefore I removed Office 2000 and reinstalled Office 97.
(I did not open the database in Access 2000.) Now, when I
use the database and it tries to open the OLE object, I get
an error message that states: Run-time error 2691. Access
can't communicate with the OLE server. The OLE server may
not be registered. To register the OLE server, reinstall
it. The question of the day is, How do I register this?

If you are running Norton Antivirus, try diabling script blocking an
then try running your database.
