HI,

After i setup user security in my database, i get this error message when i
try to create a new object like a query or a form with a wizard.
"ActiveX component cant create object".

I have logged on as user in admin group with all permission granted. what
could i have missed?

thanks for any help

Hi Ramesh,

Is your db split? If so, did you make ULS changes after you split it?

No CW, i did not split the db.

I simply used the wizard to set user security from a remote PC on the
network. Then i wrkgadm.exe to join to the secured.mdw on the PC hosting
the db.

There may be a security specific problem that's causing this message
of which I'm unaware. However the general answer to this problem is
You probably need to register the DAO dll using regsvr32. For example
regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft
Shared\DAO\DAO350.DLL" or DAO360.DLL

Thanks Tony. Will go thro the KB links you sent.

However for now i am not sure what i actually did, with whatever fiddling i
did, the problem is now gone. I dont get the error message any more. Quite
surprising, pleasantly!
