Expert question on automation

[Rick]

I have an Access 97 database that is installed on Win 2000.
I am a user on this computer and there are several users
with the same permissions. When I use this database I have
no problems. It has MS Word OLE objects in a table. When
any other user tries to use this database it gives them an
error: Run time error 2774. This component doesn't support
automation.
When our Administrator logs on it works fine also, but they
can't get it to run properly from any other user. Any ideas?

Hi Rick,

1) When you say "permissions" do you mean Access security or Windows
2000 security?

2) If the latter, this could perhaps be a manifestation of the problem
described at http://support.microsoft.com/?id=264743 . Have any users
had problems creating or using Word macros?

Thanks,
That was the problem!!!
