"The Visual Basic for Applications project in this database is corrupt"

[f]

Hi,

I created an Access 2000 application using Access 2002.
It works fine on my machine, but when I place it on a
clients machine, they get the following error message:

"The Visual Basic for Applications project in this
database is corrupt".

I've re-built the database from scratch twice. Any
suggestions on what I should now do? I've never had this
happen to me before.
Thanks in advance.

I suspect you've given the clients machines the MDE version created
from your Access 2002. But A2000 can't run A2002 MDEs. Instead it
gives you this misleading error message.

You will need to create the MDE using A2000.
