When it comes to unregistering and re-registering dlls, it has to be done on a similar system or done on site. Created a virtual Win7 with Access 2010 on it for just such a task...that will be the best solution in the long term. In the immediate you can remote in to your clients site and you could do it yourself. Client's are always happy to have you do the tricky things. ;-) Jim -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Rocky Smolin Sent: Tuesday, March 27, 2012 9:06 AM To: 'Access Developers discussion and problem solving' Subject: Re: [AccessD] Error: 3170 - Could not find installable ISAM. I just tried changing the type from 3 to 9 and sent an update to the client. Since I can't get it to fail here, I'm not sure if that will work. Should know shortly. Otherwise I'll try the re-register fix. But the user would have to do that. :( Rocky -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Jim Dettman Sent: Tuesday, March 27, 2012 9:00 AM To: 'Access Developers discussion and problem solving' Subject: Re: [AccessD] Error: 3170 - Could not find installable ISAM. Rocky, You need to re-register some .DLLs: You receive a "Could not find installable ISAM" error message or some file types are missing when you import files, export files, or link files in Access 2000 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/209805 Same for all the versions, just the name of the DLL changes.

Dear List: I have an Export To Excel function in a Bill of Materials module that works well everywhere. Except -- today I get this error at a site which is evaluating the system for purchase (so bit of urgency here) Error: 3170 - Could not find installable ISAM. In: frmBOMReports.cmdToExcel_Click I am using DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet. Does anyone know what this is about and what the fix is?
