Why can't one copy of Access find an object in a working database

I have a working database on a network. Several users can open the DB and
work in it without a problem. However, one copy of Access returns the error:

"The MS jet DB Engine could not find the object 'Admin'. Make sure the
object exists and that you spell its name and the path name correctly."

I've reinstalled office twice and Access alone one aditional time (so 3
Access reinstalls). If the DB is working on other machines, and reinstalling
the Access doesn't fix the problem, what could it be that is stalling
startup? ODBC?

Hello Danny,

Thanks for your reply. Tried taking the db off the network and still got
the same odd error. I double checked and come to find out all databases she
tries to open give the message. I'm strongly suspicious of the the OS or 3rd
party files, the computer had some software problems that caused other apps
to fail. Everything has been repaired except for this one last problem.

Just so you are sure, I checked permissions on the network, she has full
rights, I made a local copy, no change, reinstalled Access several times, no
change.

Any ideas on a 3rd app or associated MS files that may be corrupt on her
computer and causing this craziness??

Danny,

thanks for all your help. I am going to try to uninstall Office and delete
the normal.doc file and system files. Everything else I've read suggests
this is a system, not a database, problem.

Thanks again
