No text import option

I have a user for whom I installed Access 2000. He did not have the option
to import a text/csv file in Access, so I uninstalled all of Office 2000
using the Office XP Resource Kit to uninstall everything. Then I
reinstalled Office 2000, making sure to include EVERYTHING in Access and
in the tools/converters. Same problem -- the only options on import are
"Microsoft Access (MDB)" or "ODBC."

Strangely enough, using the same install media (actually install directory
on a server) I was able to perform an upgrade for another user from
Office97 a couple days previously and SHE has all the options. I also have
Access on my PC and have a whole list of import options that the first
user does not.

Has anyone seen this problem before and if so, how the heck do I fix it?

Thanks...
If you wish to reply via email, please remove the obvious from my email
address. I promise not to be upset if you reply via email as well as
posting here. :-)
