Sorry if my response sounded like criticism of you - that wasn't the intent at all! I'm simply saying that "I Don't Know" and can't give you any advice, because I don't have Win7 and cannot do any testing. Apologies if it came across as anything other than that! -- John W.

If everyone would avoid adding any references other than the base three (Access, VBA and DAO), they'd not run into these problems. Late binding allows the use of all sorts of external libraries without exposing the app to the broken reference problem. I can't see why anyone would ever add references to anything other than those basic three, except perhaps naivete, or laziness. -- David W.

If you have an MSDN subscription, I highly recommend that you download and install Win7. It's the best version of Windows since Windows 2000, by a longshot, and I'd say it's better than Win2K, as well. I really love it and am finding my clients do, too. -- David W.
