Hey Bryan
I'd bet a week of Arthur's salary :) that
that is the problem.

Well Byran checked with the user and the dev machine, both have the most 
current Windows XP and Jet 4 SP updates.  I suggest you donate a week of 
Athur's salary  to the list.  Just kidding.

Ran my test with 3 different versions of  the simple Access97  tester, 
everything worked fine.

Then created 2 simple Access 2003 mde tester versions
1. App already linked to the backend folder,  simple main menu and form 
displaying a list of one the tables in the backend. Worked fine.
2. Attach table form appears and asks the user to indicate the path to 
the backend. User types in the path and the error message appears 
"Active X component can't create object".  This app does not have any 
Active X controls.

Still looking into a possible subtle SP difference but I think I have 
hit a "DLL from hell" problem.
