no object in this control

[Guest]

Our network recently converted to Windows XP office. I converted an Access
2000 db to Access 2002. The conversion appeared to go well. In using this
db, I import a .txt file and then use the Queries to produce different
reports. When I try to import the .txt file in the Access 2002 db I receive
a message stating "There is no object in this control." Does anyone have any
suggestions / guidance to help me past this very frustrating message?

Is your import process actually being performed manually by you? i.e. you
are going to 'File' 'Import Table' etc etc ??

Hi Lani,

The following instructions usually sort out this and related problems:

If the import/export wizards don't work at all, or if you get "No object
in this control" re-register ACCWIZ.DLL.

If it's one or more file formats that aren't listed, re-register the
following files
msexcl40.dll (Excel)
msxbse40.dll (dBase)
mspdox40.dll (Paradox)
mstext40.dll (Text, CSV, tab-delimited))
In Access 97, the filenames contain 35 instead of 40.

To re-register a DLL file,

1) Locate it (usually all these are in the Windows\System32 or
WINNT\System32 folder.

2) Locate the file regsvr32.exe.

3) Drag the DLL file's icon onto the regsvr32.exe icon.

Yes...I am processing the file manually. I select 'File', 'Get External
Data', 'Import'; and then select the .txt file I am trying to import.

John,

Thank you for the information. I re-registered the ACCWIZ.DLL and it worked
like a charm!
