You may need to re-register your DAO library. Click Windows Start, and then
click Run. To register the DAO 3.6 library located in the default
installation directory (change the path below if yours is located in a
different directory), use the following command:

Regsvr32.EXE "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\DAO\DAO360.DLL"

If that doesn't work, then you may need to re-register your ACCWIZ.DLL
library. To register this libary located in the default installation
directory for Office 2003 (change the path below if yours is located in a
different directory), use the following command:

Regsvr32.EXE "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\ACCWIZ.DLL"

If that doesn't work, then please see the other steps to take listed in the
Microsoft Knowledge Base article, "You receive a 'ActiveX component can't
create object' error message when using Access" on the following Web page:

After looking in the other thread named cannot creat object, I ended up
reinstalling Office 2003 to no avail. I then found this thread and voila it
now works perfectly - THANKS!

My client is having the same problem after installing MS Project 2007. His
computer now has two versions of MS Project (2002 and 2007). MS Access now
gives the "ActiveX component can't create object".

But the funny thing is that the function that automated MS Project works for
a few minuted (big VBA loop) and then the ActiveX message appears after about
the 70th iteration of the loop. The VBA function reads a bunch of .mpp files,
reads tasks, etc.

If this was really the problem, wouldn't the message appear as soon as
Access creates the MSProject object in code? I don't understand why the VBA
code succeeds in creating the MSProject object, loops through a few MS
Project files successfully, and then, after a few minutes...booom the
"ActiveX component can't create object" appears. When I step through the
code, the error happens on the line that creates the MSProject object. Why
doesn't this error appear on the first iteration? Note, each iteration
creates and closes an MSProject object.

Thanks!
