Can't start Access in Office 97 Re-install

[Jerry]

Do to system problems I recently had to format my hard
drive and re-install the operating system. Afterwords I
re-installed much of my software including MS Office 97.
Word, Excel and PowerPoint work fine, but I cannot open
Access. I get the message "MS Access can't start because
there is no license for it on this machine. I can't get
anywhere with Microsoft getting messages that my PID is
invalid and they no longer support Office 97. Does anyone
have any suggestions, thanks.

Thank you for your help. Every thing worked well and after the re-install,
I was able to open Access. However, now when I open my previously created
databases, I get the message that "The database " " is Read Only" and I can
no longer modify, add or delete data. Can you help me once more? Thank you,

Jerry
