Just a little update. I had followed some bad advice and made some
unorthodox symlinks. Having fixed this, I am at precisely the same
point as Robert. Access97 installs fine, but I get an error message
when I try to run it ("no license for it on this machine"). The last
error message at the end of the install was that ACCWIZ.DLL was not able
to install itself in the registry.
I entered the CD key during the install - hence it seems to me that
Access should have all the licensing information it needs
Besides, it's not just a problem with Access. Word and Excel work after
a fashion, but with many hiccups. Grateful for further hints.
