Access 2000 runtime shafts VB when office XP Present

[ptj]

I've got a major problem - I develop in VB6 professional on a windows XP machine, with office xp running. I tested an installation of an access 2000 based application from a colleague which gave various errors due to the access runtime files being of an earlier version to XP. Now VB keeps saying over & over again that it is installing Access 2000 runtime files & then after a few progress bars dawdle across the screen it gives an error - some file or other not found deep in an office directory.

I have tried updating to Office XP sp1, running the repair tool, and even a total remove & reinstall but I still get the errors!!

Any idea what's going on & how to fix it?


Thanks

Phil.


PS The access installation works perfectly on any machine, any operating system that doesn't use Office XP.
