[mlack]

Are there any options/commandlines for installing Access
2003 on a Windows NT Server?

1) Why would you want to install Access on a server? Unless it was a
Terminal Server.

2) Is this NT 4? If so Access and Office 2003 will only work in
Windows 2000 SP3, Windows XP and Windows 2003 Server. And not on NT
4.0, Win 95, 98 or ME.

Yes, it is a Terminal Server, and I had heard rumors that
there was a "switch" that you can enter in the command
line during setup to install on a Win NT 4.0 TS.

There are switches and special transforms to install previous versions
of MS Access onto previous versions of the TS OSs. Such as NT 4.0.
However A2003 may, and I do emphasize the word may, install on NT 4.0
but it won't work.

(I say this because A2002 won't install on Win 95. Except the runtime
would install but would fail when you executed A2002 with an
interesting error message.)

A2002 and previous will, I'm pretty sure, install on NT 4.0 TS.

Hmm, I think. I'm starting to lose track of what version of Access
will install on what OS.
