my daughter's Office Pro 2003 ACCESS program quit Exporting last week when MS forced thru and Update despite the fact I had MS Updates turned OFF.

now she can't export her DB files, and this is causing her a lot of discomfort.
She has been using ACCESS for 30 something years, so is not a newbie to ACCESS.

I am trying to get ACCESS 2003 working again, I reinstalled it, no go.

I did a System Restore back to Aug 18th, 2025 still no go.
that should have worked??? but it does not.

I'm in Oklahoma, USA....

We need much more information to answer this question.
What exactly do you mean by exporting DB files? What is being exported (queries, tables, reports) and in what format (xls, pdf)?
Does she use program code to export? If so, show the code.
What are the symptoms? Is she getting error messages? Which ones?
Why are you asking the question?
