I have a Win XP machine running Office 97 Professional that I cannot import *.xls files into Access anymore. When I go to import external data, the option to import an Excel file is not there. I have reinstalled Office 97, Uninstalled / reinstalled the product and it still will not work. I even changed the default directory.

I think somebody may have 'tampered' with the program by 'tweaking' some of the settings, but I do not know. I even tried to load the additional data access components, but it did not help.

Help!! and thanks in advance.
