Import wizard missing

[Gary H]

Hello all!

I have tried looking this up on the web, and also in newsgroups, and I've
given up looking.

I am running Access 97, and for some reason, whenever I try to import an
excel spreadsheet into a new table, the import wizard does not come up. This
just started happening about a week ago. I can't think of any changes to my
system that may have caused this.

When I select the worksheet that I want to import (Excel shows up as one of
the file types that I can import), it brings me directly to a screen that
says "Import objects", and then it imports my whole spreadsheet into a
table, w/out giving me the import wizard to make changes to the import.

Any ideas on how I can get this back??

Thanks!

Gary

I am uncertain whether the following KB article addresses your issue,
however, I thought I would pass it along in case you have not seen it.

I would get your Office setup disk and reinstall Access and make sure
the appropriate wizards are installed. Sounds like they're not. IT
guys don't always give you all the goodies.
