I have a new error and I'm hoping that the solution is easy.
Until recently I could click on a DBase IV file of type DBF in
explorer and Access would open and the .DBF file would appear as a
table. I could then look at the data contained in the file and its
field names.
This no longer happens.
When I click on the .DBF filename in explorer Access opens. But the
file is not loaded as a table.
I get the error message ' 3011 Jet database engine cannot find object
'filename.dbf', check spelling and path.'
As I have clicked on the filename as usual I cannot have mispelled it
or the path to it. Path is C:\price\filename.dbf
I have tried current files and archived files that once worked. No
difference.
Worse, I gave copies of current .dbf files and archived files to a
friend and his PC reacts the same.
I have also tried opening Access and importing the files and I get the
same error.
All help appreciated.
Cheers
Kim
