No License for Access 97

[mot98]

Hi All,

I had a user that had Office 2000 installed. For reasons that I don't want to go into, they wanted to have Access 97 instead of 2000. So I uninstalled Access 2000 and installed Access 97. Now when I try and start it, it comes up with an error saying "There is no license for Access on this system".

I installed it from a legal Office 97 disk. After several re-installs I decided to remove Office 2000 completely and install Office 97. It is still giving me this error..only when I try and run Access.

Has anyone seen this before? Is there something I can do to get Access 97 running?

Thanks,
mot98

Try and find a font called hatten.ttf and rename it.

Re-install Access 97.

Rename hatten font back to hatten.ttf

Please post what you find.

If that doesn't work, download the following utility:
