Because of the complexity of the tip, I am posting the entire tip as submitted by listener Paul Gordon.

Make sure you have your Office CD because it will need it.

1) In “\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11″ directory delete the MSACC.OLB file. Then start Access. This causes an error and Access will repair it. Then close Access and restart it by opening an existing database.

2) Next, open the Immediate Window by pressing Ctrl+G. Then type in commandbars(”menu bar”).Enabled = true and press enter.

3) Last, in order to keep the change right click in the menu bar area and go to Customize. Click on “Menu Bar” to highlight it and then click Reset.

Close Access and re-open and you should be good to go.

Thank you Paul for submitting that tip!

It’s hard to imagine that anyone who is listening to this podcast has never heard of the term “spyware”. Spyware, sometimes thrown under the broad category of malware is similar to a virus but generally isn’t picked up by your run-of-the-mill virus scanner.
