For some reason I'm not able to use any wizards in access.
Does anyone know how I can fix the problem?

Thanks
 
Hi Kary,

Try replacing two files on your hard drive, Acwzmain.mde and Acwztool.mde, using the following
instructions. One or both of these files may have become corrupted (see
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=242218). Do this without Access running.

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 and/or Acwztool.mde files.
3.. Select both 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, my next guess is an improperly registered DAO360.dll file,
although you should have received an error message if that was the case. Follow the instructions
in http://support.microsoft.com/?id=319841 to re-register DAO.

This KB article appears to be better than KB 242218, which I referenced below:

Error Message When Running Access Wizards
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=303769

The reason I say this is that it includes additional instructions, such as replacing Acwzlib.mde
and re-registering Accwiz.dll.
