error message

[Doug Loewen]

I'm running Windows XP and Office XP
I'm building a "Customer Info" data base. When my input
form opens I get an error message... " Microsoft Access
can't open the file MFCANS32.DLL. I click OK and get a
second message... " The operation on the | object file
failed. The OLE server may not be registered. To
register the OLE server reinstall it."

I have searched my C drive, the Office disk and the
Windows disk and cannot find the file. I reinstalled
Office and I have downloaded all the service packs and
updates I could find, and I still get the errors. Any
ideas?

 

[help]

you can try the command line

in Windows
click "START"
Click "run"
type "regsrv32 dllfilename.dll"
and run it

I tried to run "refsvr32 MFCANS32.DLL" I got a different
error messate. "LoadLibrary ("MFCANS32.DLL") failed. The
specified module could not be found"
Where do I go from here??
Thanks
Doug

I found my lost file! My Office XP was an upgrade. I
inserted the original Office 97, removed and reinstalled
Access and poof there was my file. Hope this little
experiment may help others.
