Hi guys,

I was wondering if anyone can shed some light on this error I'm getting when opening my DB.

"Your microsoft database or project contains missing or broken reference to the file SACommoncontrols.dll"

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Dave

Try opening up any form in design view. Goto the vba code section by clicking that weird looking modules thingy, or by going to the properties of say a button and clicking on an event. Goto tools->references and check off what might be "MISSING". It looks like your access application is accessing a 3rd party DLL. Make sure when you reference this dll you have referenced it correctly and it is available to your app.

it may also be possible that this dll will need registering, if so, go to the command line prompt and type

regsvr32 c:\windows\system32\SACommoncontrols.dll

or whatever location it reside in
