Undefined function

[Jan H. DeGiorgio]

After using my database for several years, all of I sudden I'm getting
"undefined function" error messages for any criteria with the Date function.

Other than adding data I've made absolutely no changes to the db for several
months.

The only thing I have done recently was install the IE6 combined fix but I
doubt that could have effected my Access database.

Can anyone help me get my Date function back?

Thanks.

You might try a decompile on the db. Do a backup first! Here is

Jan,
Open any module in Design view.
On the Tools menu, click References.
Click to clear the check box for the type library or object library
marked as "Missing:."

An alternative to removing the reference is to restore the referenced
file to the path specified in the References dialog box. If the
referenced file is in a new location, clear the "Missing:" reference
and create a new reference to the file in its new folder.

See Microsoft KnowledgeBase articles:
283115 'ACC2002: References That You Must Set When You Work with
Microsoft
Access'
Or for Access 97:

the correct ones needed,

how to reset a missing one.
