Installing Problem

[Tamer Seoud]

I have a computer with Office 2000 installed on it. I
needed to install Access 97. After I installed it,
everytime I use Access 97 icon to open some databases that
were originally created with Access97, Access 2000 opens
instead, further more the Access 97 icon shows like Access
2K icon !! A lot of other users have the two versions
installed and are able to open Access97. Why this is
happening on my machine now? I have an urgent need to open
a database with Access 97. Please help.

Thanks a lot.
