Some of our users have been working with Office 200 and were recently upgraded to Office 2003 via a Tivoli push.<br />
<br />
One person tried to open an Access database that is regularly used and received this message: Your Microsoft Office Access Database or project contains a missing or broke reference to the file 'dao2535.TLB' Version 3.5. &nbsp;To ensure that your database or project works properly, you must fix this reference.&quot; &nbsp;He clicked OK and it seemed to open fine. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
He hasn't received any more messages like this but wants to be sure there isn't a problem with his database. &nbsp;Could it be related to the upgrade or is there something else we should be checking?

Microsoft Access is a rapid application development (RAD) relational database tool. Access can be used for both desktop and web-based applications, and uses VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) as its coding language.

Microsoft Access

Microsoft Windows XP is the sixth release of the NT series of operating systems, and was the first to be marketed in a variety of editions: XP Home and XP Professional, designed for business and power users. The advanced features in XP Professional are generally disabled in Home Edition, but are there and can be activated. There were two 64-bit editions, an embedded edition and a tablet edition.
