Repair Access XP registry

Is it possible to repair the registry settings for Access XP without having
to find the original installation disk? For example, is there anything
downloadable? Or is there anything you could do to make it repair itself?

When I try to repair from add/remove programs, it looks for the original
installation disk. I'm hoping there might be some lesser method?

What could possibly be easier than inserting the disc?

Perhaps re-reading David's first sentence?


P.S. David, have your colleague try to re-register the MS Office XP
libraries on his computer first. The default libraries and other common
libraries are listed in the following KB article:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?id=870963

If the DAO library is needed, then the following command will work if his
DAO library is installed in the default directory:

Regsvr32.EXE "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\DAO\DAO360.DLL"

If re-registering the libraries doesn't work and your colleague can't find
his Office XP CD, then have him call Microsoft Product Support Services, and
they'll send him a new CD for a small shipping fee. They'll ask for the
Product Key for verification that he owns the application, but if your
colleague can't find that either, then he can retrieve it directly from his
Windows Registry by using the Magic Jelly Bean Key Finder:

Actually, it is the object associations. The machine has
Access.Application.10 pointing to Office97

Going the other way, I would just reload Access.srg. Unfortunately
I don't know an equivilant in XP.
