When I import *.XLSX file into Ms Access, it gives me an error "Automation error Element not found". I tried complete reinstall of Office, creating new Ms Access and fresh test XLSX file - still get the same error message.

    Hi,

    Have you tried to repair your Access/Office installation?

    Hello,

    I am afraid nobody could resolve the issue and IT support team simply formatted and re-imaged my work laptop from scratch. Now everything works OK
