_It_doesn't_work_ It gives NO errors the first few "next" screens
and then the wonderfully informative "Overflow" popup. This behavior
is consistent with several unrelated Access databases--including ones
that are working perfectly and have small amounts of data.

This is a known problem with Access 2000 unless a particular
update is installed. But I did not know about that update until
I learned of it in this thread. I had been believing the numerous
people (including the author of a published SQL Server book) who
said the bug could only be fixed by getting Access 2003.
