Is there a way of working out which DLL the message "error in loading DLL" is referring to?

Alternatively, is there a way of working out which DLL the statement "currentproject.accessconnection" resides in?

Background
An Access ADP file that runs successfully under Access XP will not run under Access 2003 because the statement "currentproject.accessconnection" produces the error "error in loading DLL".

It's not going to be forward compatible at a guess. XP is after 2003. Even if you found the dll you are going to get a lot of problems if you try to fix it. Go the other way do the work in 2003 and then move it to access, though I wouldn't guarantee that will work either.

run dependancy walker and load access2k3.
