In a VBA module of ACCESS I added a reference to a dll I need for extra programming. Compiled and OK

I created a MDE of the updated program. MDE runs fine under ACCESS

I moved the new mde to an existing runtime environment of ACCESS. During startup of the application I get the error message "Reserved error -1517 No description available"

What to do to solve?
 
Does the DLL that you referenced reside on the machine that you moved the MDE to? if not, then you will get an error.
 
If it does reside on the machine, does it show the same creation date as the DLL you originally referenced? If it doesn't have the same date, that could cause the error as well.
 
Thanks for feedback; but the problem seems to be caused by linked tables. I found some threads about this message.

Simple refresh the linked tables was enough to solve the problem. Why is unclear but anyhow it works again!
