Access 2007 install broke Access 2000 runtime

D

David F.

I have an old Polaroid ID Cardmaker program that uses an Access 2000 Runtime
to work. After installing Office 2007 Pro Plus I found that the cardmaker
program would no longer work. The error is 2501 The OpenForm operation was
cancelled. If I try to open the mdb file the error is "You do not have the
necessary permissions to use the ........MDB object."

If I use the Polaroid installation CD and reinstall the Access 2000 runtime
the Polaroid application will work but I can no longer open Access 2007
without it
going through a reconfiguration/repair routine. Once that happens the
cardmaker app won't
work.

I can reinstall the 2000 runtime and .... here we go again. ;-)

Am I stuck in some kind of DLL hell or is there a way that both versions of
Access
can be happy?

Thanks
