MS Access Active X issue

From Jonsdocswiki

When launching any wizard in MS Access 2003 (for example, create new table wizard or forms wizard) an error is presented:

ActiveX component can't create object

This cannot be solved by reinstalling office or by adjusting user priviliges. Instead check Knowledge Base article 319844 (link below).

Resolution

(From Microsoft's article)

Cause 1: DAO is not properly registered Resolution

1. On the computer that hosts Microsoft Windows Terminal Server or the computer on which Microsoft Access is installed, click Start, and then click Run.
2. Type regsvr32 followed by the path to your DAO file. Enclose this path in quotation marks. For example, to register the DAO 3.6 library, use the following command:

regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\DAO\DAO360.DLL"
