I designed my db with access 2000 and converted it to 2003 , but when my
clients open the db with 2003 it gives an error "OWC10.DLL file not available"
What happpens is that the spreadsheets that I put in via the active control
tool now does not show.
How do I fix this?

Check the References collection of the database on the PC with Access 2003
and see if the Reference "Microsoft Office XP Web Components" (file name is
OWC10.DLL) is marked as MISSING or not.

Check whether the file exists on the PC. For default installation, the file
should be in the directory:

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Components\10\
 
The reference collection - will that be as a module?
I have no idea where else to look for it.

No. It is a collection of references that your Access / database use.

In the IDE (VBA) window, use the Menu Tools / References to see the
references set for your database.

Click to expand...

Actually he almost certainly doesn't need the Web Components
reference. So I'd suggest removing that reference and compiling the
project.

Hi Tony

One section of one of my databases was developed by another person and this
database actually needs OWC. I think the developer used the ChartSpace
object rather than Chart from Microsoft Graphs even though the database is
not on the Web.
