Don't you need the Borland Database engine on the machine to handle
dBase 5.0?  Try googling for that or for "BDE"

So here's the dilemma.  I have an mdb that is executing
DoCmd.TransferDatabase to pull a .dbf file in.  This work great on every
machine except for one.  On the problem machine, the code throws an
error (paraphrased):  "run-time error 2507: the type "DBASE 5.0" is not
an installed database type".

I've googoled but to no avail.  WHat's really kicking my butt is that
I've heard of this one befroe, I know it.  But I can't find any
solutions anywhere.

Has anyone seen this, or have a link to a KBase article or something I
can use to guide my way througha troubleshoot? Respectfully,
