Missing files
in [Form]
|
From: WST761 on 30 May 2010 14:47 Last year I had to have an MS software engineer based in Houston fix problems with my Access 2007. One thing she discovered was that my copy of Office 2007 did not contain the files DAO1 and DAO2 which are required to make the automation and forms processes work properly in Access. Does anyone know how I can obtain these files as the lady who helped me before is no longer available?

If two more files were needed for YOUR project that may mean they are from older versions and the code should be upgraded to 2007. -Tom.

From: WST761 on 30 May 2010 22:06 The file names were in the original message - DAO1 and DAO2. When I try the degugger nothing happens. My databases were originally created in Office 2003. Apparently I need those files in order to get the Switchboard working. I also have a list of instructions given me on how to proceed after the DAO files are extracted and installed.

Files typically have extensions, e.g. dao1.dll. No, such files were not needed to get the Switchboard form as built into Access 2003 to work. Anyone can create a custom form and call it switchboard and program it such that it requires a specific file, but we are assuming the standard built-in switchboard which does not require this file. You can verify this by creating a new database, create one empty form, and then step through the switchboard wizard to create a menu option to open that form. This switchboard form would work fine, even though you don't have the mystery files on your machine. Just curious: what evidence do you have these files are "apparently" required? Are you getting specific error messages? You didn't answer my question if the code did compile. -Tom.
