Missing reference in VBA?

G

Guest

I occasionally get a missing reference error on a PC when installing an
Access (2002) application onto a new PC. Normally, the reference name is
similar to the MISSING one, and I can slog through the reference table and
find it. This time however, I got a MISSING "FlUPL.OCX" reference. I have NO
IDEA where to find that. Is there a tool or function that can tell me what
library a missing ref is in?

Additionally, is there a way to get Access to automatically attempt a
re-reference for a missing one? We have a need to do that with the MS Office
Web Functions Library

Thanks for any insight!

The only surefire way is to check on the machine where the database was
created.

No, there's no way to get Access to automatically attempt a rereference. One
approach is to use late binding, rather than setting the reference in the
first place. Tony Toews has an introduction to this topic at
