I keep getting the broken reference error message saying that my vsview2.ocx
needs fixing. I looked up about vsview, but still not really sure what I
need it for. What do I need it for?
 
Hi Julie,

You very likely do not need it. Here is an easy way to tell:

1.) Make a copy of your database.
2.) Try removing (deselecting) the indicated MISSING reference.
3.) Click on the OK button to close the References dialog box.
4.) Click on Debug > Compile {ProjectName} where {ProjectName} is the name
of your VBA project (likely the same name as the name of your database).

If your code compiles without any errors, then you definately do not need
this reference. However, if you've never manually compiled your database
before, you may start uncovering other compile time errors that you may not
have known about. Code that compiles without an error is evident if you
attempt to click on Debug Compile {ProjectName} again, without making any
changes, and this option appears greyed out (disabled).
