Error in loading dll in access 2007

Hi, when trying to run a wizard or a relationship report in access 2007 I get the error message:

"Error in loading dll"

I have tried the tips people have suggested before, registering the DAO libraries and reinstalling MDAC. But that didn't work. Does anyone else have any ideas?

I am running Access 2007 on Windows 7 64 Bit. (Could the 64 bit have anything to do with it?)

Thanks.

I had the exact problem with access and a Microsoft tech took over my machine and put in

this registry key:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\TypeLib{00025E01-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}\5.0\0\win32]

@=hex(2):25,00,43,00,6f,00,6d,00,6d,00,6f,00,6e,00,50,00,72,00,6f,00,67,00,72, 00,61,00,6d,00,46,00,69,00,6c,00,65,00,73,00,25,00,5c,00,4d,00,69,00,63,00, 72,00,6f,00,73,00,6f,00,66,00,74,00,20,00,53,00,68,00,61,00,72,00,65,00,64, 00,5c,00,44,00,41,00,4f,00,5c,00,64,00,61,00,6f,00,33,00,36,00,30,00,2e,00, 64,00,6c,00,6c,00,00,00

just cut and paste the key into notepad and save it to your desktop as win32key.reg then double click it and it will enter in the registry

    I was unable to import an excel 2007 file into Access 2007, receiving the "Error in Loading DLL" message. Searching the web for answers, I first tried Microsoft Support's suggestion to register the dao360.dll and msado15.dll files. Both successfully loaded but when I tried Access again, I still received the "error in Loading DLL" message. When I ran MartyD3's solution, which he received from a Microsoft tech, the problem was solved. Why doesn't Microsoft post that answer? Especially when dealing with the registry, I'd much prefer to use the responses of MS.

    Thanks.

    The .reg file didn't work for me but I found that the hex stuff is just unicode text. Found a little translator online and found that this key is pointing to the dao360.dll. To make this fix work I used regedit, created the keys  [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\TypeLib{00025E01-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}\5.0\0\win32] then added the value data C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\dao360.dll to the default (you'll need to find the appropriate path for dao360.dll on your install). Now the wizard works fine!

    Thanks MartyD3 for your post, never would have figured this out otherwise!
