You need to register the DAO dll using regsvr32.

Hi
I have having problems when trying to design forms and
create lookup tables within Access. I keep getting a error
message, 'Activex Component can't create object' and in
some instances this will cause Access to crash and close.
I have tried everything from changing security levels to
seeing what files are missing I can even tried
reinstalling Microsoft office as i thought maybe something
is missing as I never had this problem before.
Please help me.
Thank you
