    Compatibility issues with Access 2013 Object libraries


    Hi all... I have many applications in Access 2007 format and our facility has recommended (not required) users to upgrade to Office 2013. The problem is that when a user with the new version goes into one of my apps that uses other Office apps such as Excel or Outlook, the object reference libraries are changed to the Excel 15 or Outlook 15 reference library. It doesn't appear to affect the Access 14 object library itself but it throws an error because it can't find the one that have become Office 15 object libraries. Does anyone know a way around this or a way to fix the problem? It would appear all users should have been required to upgrade at the same time in light of the issue. Just my opinion.

    Thanks in advance... Glenn

    Research late binding; with it you don't need a references to Excel or Outlook.

    Thanks for your response. I'm researching late binding now and it appears to be a viable solution.
