Multiple Access Versions

[LadyCES]

I have several clients that use versions of Access from 97 through 2002 and
am experiencing problems after I install Access 2002. I cannot get any help
files to work in 2000 even if I uninstall 2002. It seems that 2002
supercedes files and I can't get them to reinstall in 2000. Thanks,
Christine

Are you installing full or runtime A2002?

Although there are potential problems in installing multiple Access versions
(and many do exactly that), I thought they were solved by installing different
Access in different directories.

For instance (in my Access2002 Dev version here), the main help file is
installed in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\1033\oftip10.hlp
(which seems to be very clearly an A2002-only folder/file)

If you have lost the help in A2000, then try and find out what file it is
referring to (eg View, Toolbars, Customize,
then click the main menu Help, Microsoft Access Help and right-click
Properties).

In other words, I don't know!
