Thanks for your suggestions; they've been helpful.
Zeroing in on the problem, which appears to be a claim on
certain MS control ocxs and dlls by MS Office 2000 when
the user logging in has an Office profile. The vb program
in question uses these ocxs and dlls also. Why the
squabble?
Thanks for responding to my original post.

Joe
