XP Pro reinstall kills MS Access 2K & 2003

[Niel]

I just had to repair my Windows XP pro installation. Upon reinstalling all
my applications I find that my Access 2003 applications will no longer work
with my Access 2003 upgrade(from Off 2K Pro).

Only the Switchboard buttons will work, all my exit/close buttons with code
are useless. Combo boxes do work.

On a different PC I had to make a conversion copy to Access 2K for it to
work on this PC. The DoCmd.Requery "ControlName" also now produces a Run
Time error 2488.

I have since tested several other applications in Access 2003, all act the
same. The Analyze tools like Performance & Documentor bothe open to an
empty tabbed form -- very strange.

What could be going on in Win XP to cause this?

Any suggestions appreciated
