ACC2: Duplicate Procedure Errors After Installing OUTPUTAS.MDA

• Microsoft Access 2.0

SYMPTOMS

Novice: Requires knowledge of the user interface on single-user computers.

If you install the Microsoft Access version 1.x OutPutAs library (OUTPUTAS.MDA) in Microsoft Access version 2.0, the following error messages will occur when you start Microsoft Access 2.0:

Tried to load module with duplicate procedure definition:
SOA_IsNull

Tried to load module with duplicate procedure definition:
SOA_RptToBIFF

Tried to load module with duplicate procedure definition:
SOA_RptToRTF

Tried to load module with duplicate procedure definition:
SOA_AddStyles

CAUSE

The procedures named in the error messages above are already included in Microsoft Access 2.0. When you load OUTPUTAS.MDA as a library database, the duplicate procedure names cause the error messages.

RESOLUTION

The functionality contained in OUTPUTAS.MDA is already in Microsoft Access 2.0. Uninstall OUTPUTAS.MDA as a database library.

If you do not want OUTPUTAS.MDA to appear in the Add-in Manager's list of available libraries, do one of the following:

• Move OUTPUTAS.MDA to another directory.



• Rename OUTPUTAS.MDA to OUTPUTAS.OLD.



• Delete OUTPUTAS.MDA.

MORE INFORMATION

The OutPutAs library is a supplemental version 1.x library that you use in version 1.x to output reports to a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet, an RTF file, or a text file. When you install Microsoft Access version 2.0, the OutPutAs library is not loaded in version 2.0's MSACC20.INI file, since the functionality in this library is included in version 2.0. The OUTPUTAS.MDA file will appear in the Add-in Manager's list of available libraries in version 2.0 if you install version 2.0 in the same directory as Microsoft Access version 1.x.
