Access 2000 'Run time error '13': Type mismatch' When Opening Recordset

by  Rohdem  Posted    (Edited  )
With Access 2000, Microsoft made the switch from using the DAO library to ADO. These means if you want to use DAO to open a recordset, you need to make sure the DAO library has a higher priority than ADO in the references. This can be done by opening a code window and selecting 'references' from the 'Tools' menu. Make sure the DAO library is checked and is higher on the list than ADO.

This is the microsoft article detailing the problem:
