  ODBC.  Create 
  a new Access User DSN if there isn't one there already.  Choose 
  Configure then Repair on the election.mdb.  If that doesn't work, 
  play around with the Compact and Advanced options.  If that doesn't work 
  roll back to Access 97 until I get a copy of 2000.  Make sure you do 
  all this after re-installing MDAC.  Let us know how you make out either way.
