Hello! Previously during normal installation over 50 addins were installed
during Office 2000 about a year ago. Recently, IT re-installed Office to
correct some minor mishaps for Access 2000. In doing their re-install from a
CD, they lost my previous addins. IT re-installed Office several more times
and could not find a selection to include the addins. They are baffled as to
what they need to do to get the addins that should be viewed in the menu
tools, addins, addin manager, drop list. The list is always blank. We did
do a search on the hard drive for any addins files that come up with no list.
When IT go to MS download site, only 8-addins are available and are not the
same as the regular addins that are suppose to installed from a regular CD.
Question: Does anyone know what to do to get most of the addins installed?

It's just possible that your add-ins are there but the registration in
Access has been blown. Something to try:

Do a search on your system for *.mda. That should help you find the
folder. Then go into Tools|Add-ins|Add-in Manager and take the path
to Add an add-in. Navigate to the folder an click on the add-in.
Repeat 49 times.
