Wizard not happening

[Peter Mitchell]

Hoping someone can help me please.

When I currently add a command button or a combo box to a (blank) form the
wizard doesn't activate (the wizard that runs when creating a
mainform/subform does run).

It use to. I have re:installed the Typical and Additional wizards - without
change to the problem. Unistalled and installed Ofiice - all without change
to the problem.

I am running Office XP and Windows XP - on a computer at home (not networked
to a server).

I hope someone can help - because it's annoying - and increases difficulty
when trying to teach someone else how to create a form with a productive
user interface.

One of the icons in the toolbox looks like a magic wand: is it depressed?

The build button becomes active when I make the button. What I have
discovered is that for a different user on the one computer (as I did set up
different users although hardly ever used) the problem doesn't occur - so
I'm hoping to make a new (admin) user which won't have the problem - and end
up deleting the current user - to shortcut the problem. Doesn't of course
fix the problem.
