error 1918. Error installing ODBC driver: Microsoft Text Driver (*.txt;
*.csv), ODBC error 13: Could not load the setup or translator library.
Verify that the file Microsoft Text Driver (*.txt, *.csv) exists and you can access it.


Trying to install Office and I get 6 errors similar to this. How do I fix it?

The install finishes and Access seems to start up OK. dont know if it functions though.

Amazer you ARE having puter problems lately:jesus

amazer ·

Yes. I'm the computer question king.
When asking them, nto answering of course.

Well these are the errors. I tried the repair from control panel but same old same old.

Should just be a question of getting these files and putting them in the appropriate directory yes?

I hate to say it but the Micro$oft way may be the only way. Uninstall, clean up the registry and try again....

I bet you are using a pirate copy of Office ....

obviously your registry is full of redundant entries from past app installs/uninstalls.
yeah you need to get into the registry to clean it up. a backup tool would be advisable before attacking this.

files to be backing up wil be system.dat and user.dat
