RE: Access 97 and 2000
Taken from the MS Knowledge Base (I had this same issue) at: http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q241/1/41.ASP?LN=EN-USSD=g nFR=0 --- One error message you may receive is: Microsoft Access can't start because there is no license for it on this machine. To resolve this behavior, follow these steps: Click Start, point to Find, and then click Files or Folders. In the Named box, type Hatten.ttf. In the Look In box, type C:\Windows\Fonts or the path to the Fonts folder on your computer. If you are not sure of the font folder's location, open Windows explorer and verify the directory where Windows is installed. Note: If you are on Windows NT 4.0, the path may be C:\WINNT\Fonts Click Find Now to start the search. Under Name, right-click the Hatten.ttf file, and on the menu that appears, click Rename. Change the name of the file to Hatten.sav. NOTE: You can find the Hatten.ttf file in the Fonts folder under the name, Haettenschweiler Insert your Access 97 or Office 97 CD into the CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive. Click Start, and then click Run. Type the command to run the Microsoft Access Setup program and use the /y switch to reregister Access 97. For example, type: D:\Setup.exe /y In the Installation Maintenance Program dialog box, click Reinstall. The Setup program updates the system registry for Access. When Setup is finished, start Access. -Original Message- From: Andy Ewings [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, August 22, 2000 10:52 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: Access 97 and 2000 A miracle No really - I think you need to have them installed on a seperate drive, or partition - but I'm not 100% sure -Original Message- From: Gene Kraybill [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 22 August 2000 18:55 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: OT: Access 97 and 2000 What does it take to run both Access 97 and Access 2000 on the same machine?

Re: Access 97 and 2000
H, I have both installed without a problem. I had 97 installed first, then installed 2000 from the disc and select the "install when first run" option. I can switch back and forth and even have both running at once. I have a Windows 98 OS, if that makes any difference. -Deanna Deanna Schneider Interactive Media Developer UWEX Cooperative Extension Electronic Publishing Group 103 Extension Bldg 432 N.

We have some small CF db's in Access 97. We have a development machine with Office 2000 and tried to install only the Access portion of Office 97 on the same machine. When we try to start either version of Access, we now get this message: "Microsoft Access can't start because there is no license for it on this machine."
