Hello

I have MS Office XP (2002) updated to service pack 3, installed upon
Windows XP Pro.

All Office products work except Access.

When I open Access and then click on the "blank database" choice, the next
box opens to name and create my new blank database. next a page opens to
give me choices on how to create tables.

Without doing anything after a short moment an error box pops up to send a
report to MS.

I have uninstall and reinstalled the product to no avail
I have tried different video drivers to no avail

any suggestion as to what might be the cause?

Thank you
Extremely Baffled
 
Oh, and I forgot to say that there are 5 profiles, or user accounts on the
machine.

Thanks again

Are you sure that you are not doing something here that you haven't
mentioned? I just tried to reproduce your steps, using Access 2002, and after
I create a blank database, I do not automatically get a page opening to give
me choices on how to create tables. I'm thinking that you either clicked on
the option to "Create table by using wizard", or "Create table by entering
data". In any case, it sounds like a wizard is failing, perhaps due to a
corrupted wizard file or an improperly registered file. Here is some advice
on fixing wizard related problems:

Try the following steps. You possibly have other wizards that are not
functional as well.

Replace three files on your hard drive, Acwzmain.mde, Acwzlib.mde and
Acwztool.mde, using the instructions shown in KB 303769. One or more of these
files may have become corrupted. Do this without Access running.

http://support.microsoft.com/?id=303769
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=833220  Error in loading DLL

1.) Insert the Microsoft Office or Access compact disc.
2.) By using Windows Explorer, open the Pfiles\Msoffice\Office\1033
folder on your CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive, and locate the
Acwzmain.mde, Acwzlib.mde and Acwztool.mde files.
3.) Select these files, and then click Copy on the Edit menu
4.) Open the folder that you installed Office into. The default folder is
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office. Select the Office\1033 folder,
and then on the Edit menu, click Paste.

If that doesn't fix the problem, try re-registering the Accwiz.dll,
Msado15.dll and DAO360.dll files. Click on Start > Run. Then enter the
commands:

Regsvr32 Accwiz.dll
Regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Common Files\system\ado\Msado15.dll"
Regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\DAO\Dao360.dll"

Wizard starts, but “No valid fields can be found†error message may be
related to overly aggressive settings on antivirus software:
