User defined type not defined

[Guest]

Hi, we have an Access 97 application where quite a few custom letters are
generated from the system. The codes are embedded in the sytem to achieve
this. However, recently, none of the letters are working. When one tries to
press a button on the letter generation form, the following is generated:
Compile error: User defined type not defined. The cursor goes to the
following code:
Dim objWord as Word. Application.

I am then checking the reference and found only three of the following are
checked.
1) Visual Basic for Application
2) Microsoft Access 8.0 Object Library
3) Microsoft Dao 3.51 object library

Any help to resolve the issue is apprecatied. Thanks

You need a reference to the version of Word installed on the target PCs -
Microsoft Word.8 Object Library for Word 97, 9 for 2000, 10 for 2002 or 11
for 2003.
