Problem solved. I sent him a one-form mdb with the same references checked as the mde. And in the CBF I used the Left and CHR functions. Sure enough it failed, but this time I was able to see the problem. It was missing the Outlook library. Although he bought O2K3 Pro and installed it he didn't tell me he had not installed Outlook. Adding Outlook solved the problem. But I think I have to figure out how to do late binding so that this doesn't happen again.

You can get problems unless you point to the Sagekey exe.

But there should be no ref problem with the Wise/Sagekey install. At least I've never had one before with any mde.

Can he check the Refs to see if there is a Missing one?

The program file itself is an mde. Runs fine on his box. All other boxes on his network fail when he tries this combo box that has a query as its row source. The query uses Left, Instr, and Chr(10) and that is failing. I discovered one difference between his box and the other - he's got Office 2003 Standard (no Access); the box we were testing it where it failed has Office 97 - Word, Excel, PowerPoint. Could that be creating the problem?
