Look what I get sertev:
Run time error 2282
The formats that allow to export data as Microsoft Excel, format rich-text, text of the MSDOS or as files of HTML are not present in the register of the Windows. Execute the configuration program to reinstall the Microsoft Access or, if you are familiar to the definitions of the register, try to correct them manually. For more information on the Register, it makes click on ' Help '.
Babelfish translation! And tweaked by me!

Anyway here I go in the quest for the missing Office 97 CD...


Ralph, I'm going to try sertev's tip until I have no way of achieving it. But thank you for posting an example. It's great to have a plan B.
