License question

[Carolyn]

Client had loaded Office 97 on her new Windows XP machine.

When she tries to open Access she gets an error message
reading:

"Access cannot start because there is no license fo rit
on this machine".

Can anyone provide help on this question?
Thanks in advance

Have a look at this page on the Microsoft Knowledge Base -
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;141373, which
indicates a couple of reasons for this, and how to fix them.

Sometimes there is a font that needs to be disabled in
order to install office 97 on some operating systems.
Try going to

to see if you can get some tips from Microsoft on how to
deal with this problem.
