1. Exit Accountants Office, then open Windows Explorer or Computer. Windows Explorer starts.

2. Navigate to and open your Accountants Office program folder. For example: C:\Program Files\Accountants Office. The contents of the folder appear.

   

   If your Accountants Office program folder is not located in one of the following paths:
   C:\Program Files\Accountants Office or D:\Program Files\Accountants Office; or
   C:\Program Files\CA-Systems or D:\Program Files\CA-Systems,
   continue at step 5. The register.bat file referred to at step 3 only registers files located in any of the paths above.
   

   If you are unsure where your Accountants Office program folder is, right-click your Accountants Office icon, select Properties and choose the Shortcut tab. The value in the Start in field is the location of your folder.

3. Double-click the Register.Bat file. The cmd.exe window appears for a few seconds and then disappears.

   

   If file extensions aren't visible, the file will be named Register. In this case there might be two files with the same name. To determine the correct file you will need to activate file extensions in Windows Explorer. If you want to activate file extensions, refer to the procedure below titled 'To activate file extensions'. 
4. Start Accountants Office and try to print. If the error no longer appears, there is no need to continue with the remaining steps. If the error is still present, continue at step 5.
5. At the Windows Desktop, click Start and select Run. The Run window appears.
6. In the Open field, type:

• • Regsvr32 "C:\Windows\System32\AOReport.dll" and press ENTER. (For 32 bit)
  • Regsvr32 "C:\Windows\SysWOW64\AOReport.dll" and press ENTER. (For 64 bit)
    A message appears stating that the registration succeeded.

You can now start Accountants Office and print without experiencing this error.

If you are still getting the error, this may imply that you didn't use the correct Accountants Office program folder when manually registering the file through Start > Run. To check that you have used the correct Accountants Office program folder, right-click the Accountants Office icon that you use to open the program with, choose Properties and click the Shortcut tab. The value in the Start in field is your Accountants Office program folder. Perform the procedure again using this folder path if it differs to the one you originally used. If the folder path is the same, perform the procedure outlined in 7210 Error The specified module could not be found when registering files. If you still get the error, contact MYOB Accountants Office Support for further assistance.

1. From the Organize menu, select Folder and Search Options. The Folder Options window appears.
