Cannot Import Excel Files

Hi

When I try to import excel files into MapPoint using the wizard I get the following message. " There was an unexpected problem during this operation. Class not registered"

I just purchased MapPoint and install it when this happened. I you have any info on how to fix this it would be appreciated.

Thanks

I've gotten that too with MapPoint 2001. I ended up uninstalling the program and reinstalling it which seems to fix it. Not sure what caused the problem in the first place. Not a great way to fix a problem, but it worked.

I reinstalled mappoint, but it did not fix the problem. thanks for your input though

For anyone who may encounter this problem this is how I fixed it. I downloaded the following updates and rebooted the computer in safe mode and installed them. I have Window 98.

Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 2.6 SP2 (2.62.7400.1) Download Page<http://www.microsoft.com/data/download_26sp2.htm>

Microsoft Jet 4.0 Service Pack 3 Download Page

Hope this is helpful to someone

Try fix Excel (http://www.recoverytoolbox.com/repair_excel.html), it able recover data after viruses, problems with media (a hard drive failure, a corrupted CD or DVD, etc.), errors in transferring the file via the LAN or the Internet, etc, will display a dialog box with the question whether this worksheet should actually be scanned.

Which version of MapPoint and what operating system are you using?

Hi,

What could help is to register it manually:

MapPoint.exe /registerserver

Also did you hit 'accept' on the licence form ? If you don't you have similar faults.
