I've just had to re-install Office97 and now the system cannot seem to find
any of the VBA functions. Perfectly acceptable query entries like

text:=left$("Hello there",5)

generates an error

I think the system is not able to find a VBA dll file. Can anyone help as I
have tried re-installing it twice to no avail. Also the Report Wizard just
crashes Access but this may be related.

Any help will be much appreciated

It sounds like a missing reference.  Try opening Tools|References and see
whats missing.  Most likely it is DAO350.DLL. Re-registering this file by
hand with regsvr32.exe should clear up the problem.
