The information in this article applies to:
SYMPTOMSModerate: Requires basic macro, coding, and interoperability skills. When you run the Microsoft Access 97 Setup program from an administrative installation on a server, you may receive the following error message:
Setup Error 914 Object 27 Your Setup files may be damaged. Try restarting the Setup program from where you originally ran it.You may also receive error messages regarding Objects 1932, 1933, 1934 and 3314. Finally, you receive the error message:
Microsoft Access 97 Setup was not completed successfully. CAUSEMicrosoft Access 97 Setup is using a setup table (.stf) file that was opened, edited, and saved improperly in Microsoft Excel. The resulting corruption in the setup table can occur regardless of which version of Microsoft Excel you use to edit the file. Also, if you open a custom .stf file in Microsoft Excel, make changes to it and save it, you may receive these error messages when you use the custom .stf file with Microsoft Access 97 Setup.
WORKAROUNDTo prevent corruption of the setup table, you must perform extra steps immediately after opening the .stf file and prior to making any other changes to it.
If you have already made changes to your .stf file and are receiving the error messages shown in the "Symptoms" section, you can repair your .stf file by following the steps in the "Workaround" section.
MORE INFORMATIONWhen you open an .stf in Microsoft Excel, the Text Import Wizard helps you convert the file (a very large text file) into a format that Microsoft Excel can display. The steps used to open an .stf in earlier versions of Microsoft Access must be altered slightly to work correctly with the setup table files for Microsoft Access 97. Because of this, using the incorrect steps to open, edit, and save the setup table file will result in a corrupted setup table file, and you will receive the error messages shown in the "Symptoms" section when you run Microsoft Access 97 Setup.
