cannot create form from table

[dimercaprol]

I have made a simple table in Access 97 and am trying to
design a form based on this table. So I go to the form
wizard, transfer all the "available fields" to the
selected fields, click next, choose "columnar" (or any of
them) and click next following which the error message "no
current record" appears. I have to click "OK" and then
another message box comes up - this is blank with just
an "OK" button. On clicking this, the wizard closes and I
go back to the original window. The knowledge base
describes a similar error in Access95 related to not
having full administrative rights. However, it says this
issue was resolved in Access 97. Can anyone please help?
Thank you.

According to one Google article by Ken Snell it's some scary registry thing.
To quote:

"I got some info from experts, so give this a try and see if this works for
you:

Look at the registry key permissions and/or group membership (in Windows).
Users need to have full control permissions on the key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\8.0\Access\Wizards

Users also need to be part of the Power Users group (in Windows).

Also, try logging on as administrator to see if the problem also occurs
then."
