MS-Access Runtime Error 20523: Cannot find database dll

Asked By Lenny Flores 10 points N/A Posted on - 07/15/2011

I keep getting this error in my Microsoft Access Database:

Runtime error 20523 – Cannot find database dll

I know that I saved the program correctly and it was doing fine when I was editing it.

But when I opened it again, it kept on giving me that error.

How am I going to save my database?

MS-Access Runtime Error 20523: Cannot find database dll

Hi Flores,

The inquiry about run time error 2052 posted by you while using Microsoft database is an error that might can be caused by the following reason:

• If DLL is missing, check if it does not generate error. Then you can put NTWDBLIB.DLL in your database and let's see whether the problem gets solved.

If you experience the same problem then let me know so that we can be sure and clear that your DLL settings problem is not the case.

Thanks!

MS-Access Runtime Error 20523: Cannot find database dll

Hello,

Error with: Cannot find database dll means that the crystal reports cannot locate the database driver dll for access. 

For CR8.5, in the use of ADO data source its database driver is P2smon.dll. In native SQL server its P2ssql.dll, in dependency dll are p2lsql.dll and ntwdblib.dll.

For Cr9, the dll's drivers are not the same and reports formatted to Cr9 are incompatible. In here, the Crdb_ado.dll is the ADo database driver while the driver for native SQL server is unsupported. Thus, this makes the reports to use either odbc driver or ado driver.

You should be aware and find the appropriate database driver for your system and put it in the System32 directory. One thing is you can also do dependency check on the dll to find out which one is using depends.exe.

This tool is a dependency walker which is a part of Visual Studio. It opens depending on the Microsoft tools. To open it, Select File – Open and choose dll and mark the dependency you desired.

I hope this will help you.
