i need to import a spreadsheet. I've tried File/Get
External Data/Import and Link and my spreadsheet does not
show up. What is up with that? It show file types limited
to Access extensions, XML documents, and ODBC Databases.
 
From info previously posted by John Nurick, Microsoft ACCESS MVP:

If the import/export wizards don't work at all, re-register ACCWIZ.DLL

If it's one or more file formats that aren't listed, re-register the
following files
msexcl40.dll (Excel)
msxbse40.dll (dBase)
mspdox40.dll (Paradox)
mstext40.dll (Text, CSV, tab-delimited))
In Access 97, the filenames contain 35 instead of 40.

To re-register a DLL file,

1) Locate it (usually all these are in the Windows\System32 or
WINNT\System32 folder.

2) Locate the file regsvr32.exe.

3) Drag the DLL file's icon onto the regsvr32.exe icon.
