Access 2003 on Vista Business

R

I have installed Access 2003 on a Vista Business laptop. I have been able to
create tables and forms. But when I try to run the report wizard or the data
access page wizard. I get a message to the affect of "Access can't perform
this function".

Any ideas why I can't run these two wizards? Thanks!

Have you tried "Run as administrator" to see if the wizards work under those
circumstances?

That can't be right - I can run both those wizards on Vista here without
needing to use the 'Run As Administrator' option. Sounds more like you need
to do a reinstall or repair install of Access and make sure you have
everything installed.

I am the administrator of the laptop and the domain administrator. I don't
have the 'Run as administrator" option. I don't have User Account Control
turned on either. Reinstalling is an option that I will try next. It can't
hurt.
