DAO.msi error

[Jackie]

I hope this is the correct newsgroup for my question. I have been having a
problem with Access 2003 for awhile. When I try to run a report, the
windows installer begins then a box that windows installer is installing
DAO. Eventually a dialog box appears that "The feature you are trying to
use is on a network resource that is unavailable". There is an option to
redirect to the folder containing DAO.msi. I have searched my system and do
not have this file. If I cancel this procedure repeats for a total of 3
times then Access continues with the report normally. Today I installed the
trial of Corel Draw 12 and I now get the same messages when starting Corel
Draw. Again, cancelling 3 times and the program appears to start normally.
I searched the knowledge base without success.

Would appreciate any suggestions.

Hello Jackie,

I opted not to use Access2003 this first time it annoyed me which is when I
first tried to open a database, so I am not sure of the installation
options, but I would suggested uninstalling the program, then reinstall
selected all of the available options. Othe than that, it sounds like
another thing Microsoft probably built into Access to annoy us.

God Bless,
