The specs ar

2k serve
xp pro client
office 2000 premium was installed on the xp clients via the admin accoun
a domain user gets the windows installer error anytime they open a access file.(MDB

If you run access and open the file. It works fine. If you double click a file from explorer windows installer comes up and starts looking for something on sr2 office premium,(it doesnt find it when I put the cd in), then it gives an generic error and closes

If I log in as the local admin (the account that installed office) everything works fin

I try making the domain user a local power user...same resul
I even made the domain user a local admin for testing and I still get the same crap

Basically any account I log onto this machine with (expect the admin account that installed office) gives me the error

Users in this enviroment need to be able to double click files and have them open without loading up access first.

Can anyone help or point me to some help?

Thank you!
