[AccessD] Access DLL Weirdness

Hi All,

I installed Office 2000 Pre about a year ago on my PC.
Everything has worked perfectly up until two weeks ago.
I started to get errors that indicated a database communication failure.
For example: "Method 'Recordset' of object '_Form_frmTNCOComputers' failed"

Because this problem only occurred during VBA code execute and not on bound
forms that have no code, I assumed it was a reference problem.
I checked my references and DAO3.6 was not referenced! Weird! So when I
tried to reference it, I received and error message or "Error loading DLL".
Upon investigate it appears the reference was looking for dao360.dll in
C:\Windows\system32 (I am using WinXP Pro), which is strange because the DAO
files are in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\DAO.

When I check other installations of Access 2000 on other computers the
reference points to the correct place.

Anyone have any ideas on would cause this?
Also, how do I remove the incorrect reference location before I reregister
the dll from the proper location?

Thanks,
Joe Rojas
