[AccessD] A2K MDE Runtime Reference problem - URGENT

>From the name of the file, it sounds like a printer configuration
control.  I don't remember anything like that on my NT box.  Was there
anything like a pdf printer installed on the machine?

Rocky,

They don't have the correct version of Access installed (at the win98
location).  I found what I think is the offending reference (to a file
named cnfgprt.ocx).  We're going to remove it then recompile the app and
see if it runs.  I think that ocx is some NT service pack file but why
it's referenced here is a mystery.

Jim:

If they can load Access on that machine, you could send them a stripped
down version of the app as an mdb and it should blow dumping them into
the code window. From there you could walk them through displaying the
references to see which one is broken and the do a search on it, copying
it to the expected directory.

It just seems the date fields that have the problem.
