article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: 256986 Description of the Microsoft Windows Registry SYMPTOMSWhen you start Linked Table Manager Wizard in a Microsoft
Office Access 2003 database that contains linked tables, you may notice that
the list of currently linked tables, together with their paths, does not appear
in the Select the linked tables to be updated list box.
Therefore, you may not be able to update the linked tables.CAUSEThis problem may occur for either of the following reasons:
- The Accwiz.dll file that is used by Access 2003 is not
registered correctly on your computer.
- The version of the Accwiz.dll file that is used by Access
2003 and is registered on your computer may be an incorrect version.
RESOLUTIONTo resolve this problem, you must locate and then register
the correct version of the Accwiz.dll file. To do this, follow these steps:
- Locate the Accwiz.dll file on your computer that
corresponds to Access 2003. To do this, follow these steps:
- Search for all copies of the Accwiz.dll file on your
computer.
- For each copy of the Accwiz.dll file that is listed in
the search results, right-click the Accwiz.dll file, and then
click Properties.
- In the ACCWIZ.DLL Properties dialog
box, notice the version number that is mentioned for File
Version on the Version tab.
For example, if
the version number is similar to 11.x.xxxx.x, the Accwiz.dll file corresponds
to Access 2003.
- At the command prompt, run the following command:
regsvr32.exe <path>\Accwiz.dll Note In this step, <path> is a
placeholder. Make sure that the <path>
placeholder is replaced by the full path of the Accwiz.dll file that you
located in step 1.
If the previous method does not resolve this problem, examine
the following registry value data to see if the value data is pointing to the
correct Accwiz.dll file in Access 2003. HKCR\TypeLib\{5B87B6F0-17C8-11D0-AD41-00A0C90DC8D9}\8.0\0\win32\<(Default)> where (Default) is the following registry key value: C:\Program
Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\ACCWIZ.DLL. STATUS
