These instructions usually solve this and related problems:

If the import/export wizards don't work at all, or if you get "No object
in this control" re-register ACCWIZ.DLL.

If it's one or more file formats that aren't listed, re-register the
following files
msexcl40.dll (Excel)
msxbse40.dll (dBase)
mspdox40.dll (Paradox)
mstext40.dll (Text, CSV, tab-delimited))
In Access 97, the filenames contain 35 instead of 40.

To re-register a DLL file,

1) Locate it (usually all these are in the Windows\System32 or
WINNT\System32 folder.

2) Locate the file regsvr32.exe.

3) Drag the DLL file's icon onto the regsvr32.exe icon.

Hi John,

I'm not the one who originally reported this problem, but I found your
answer while having the same -- very frustrating problem! Anyway, your
instructions fixed it! So, I just wanted to take a moment to say THANK YOU
VERY MUCH!

Keep up the good work!
