[AccessD] Failure to open database file

Thanks for all responses that are useful to me resolving the problem.  I
did discover a missing reference of Microsoft DAO 3.51 Object Library in
references.  The dll file is in the folder.  I unchecked the reference
and re-registered it.  Thus, it works now.  I have inquired the user who
said no program installed recently and any crash on the pc.  However, I
noticed that the Windows 98 could not shut down properly and there was
below error message when I clicked Properties of printer or randomly
clicked any menus.

 

Internet Explorer Script Error

 

An error has occurred in the script on this page.

 

Line: 53

Char: 4

Error: Library not registered.

Code: 0

URL: file://C:\WINDOWS\web\printers.htt
<file:///C:\WINDOWS\web\printers.htt> 

 

Do you want to continue running scripts on this page?

 

Yes No

 

 

Although I fixed up the problem, I still do not know why it happened.
Is there any member to have identified the causes of this problem?

 

Thanks,

 

Ray Li

Don,

 

  Funny, I've been more or less stating it that way for years and never
thought anyone would check them all.  NO you you only need to do it with
ONE reference to force the reference cleanup.  Your just trying to get
the list to change.  Just as easily, you could uncheck one reference and
then recheck it.

Is it really necessary to check them ALL to do this 'kick-in-the-pants"
reference repair ? Won't adding a couple do the trick, supposing that
the needed refs are there in the first place, of course.
