Problem installing Access 97 on newer Windows OS

L

lola

I am running XP Professional. I already have Office 2000
loaded. I just loaded Access 97, Word 97, and Excel 97
from my OEM of Office 97. When I try to run Access 97, I
get a message saying there is no license for Access 97 on
this machine on this machine. Yet, I have no problem
running Word 97 and Excel 97. There is something
else... usually when new software is loaded in XP, it is
highlighted in the program list. None of the Office 97
products were highlighted upon install. I know the
option is turned on because I loaded Acrive Synch for my
PDA last night...
Can anyone provide some insight?

Thanks!
