I installed them in separate directories. Since we use
mostly use Access 97 we had changed the default program
for MDA, MDB, etc. to Access 97.
Thank you for the info. You've encouraged me that I can
get this thing working somehow. I'm going to try
reinstalling Access 2003 and I will see if that helps.
