On a separate issue, I recently installed a program which identified that the "Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC)" where damaged and that an install was available to correct the problem. Of interest was that a couple of the error codes from the GM ACCESS DCS program related to this function. I downloaded the repair from Microsoft and installed. Low and behold the DCS problem is no more.
If you cannot launch your DCS program and GM Access support has thrown hands in the air then you may wish to try this download.
If you would like to try this fix please drop me an email request and I will forward to you.
FYI ..this problem also stopped the SAAB parts catalog from working. This repair from Microsoft also repaired this
Supported Operating Systems: Windows 2000, Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows NT, Windows XP
Thanks
