To register the OLE server, reinstall it.
Trying to convert the CommonDialog ActiveX control to an image displays a
different error message:
Microsoft Access can't read the CommonDialog object because
communication was interrupted.

Developer Edition 97 do not support converting to an image.
STATUS
This behavior is by design.
