Unfortunately this newsgroup is devoted to peer support for
MS Access the desktop database program not Win XP.
I suggest you plough through the MS newsgroups until you
find the WinXP ones. Folks there should be more than
knowledgable enough to sort out your problems. I have had a
quick scan of my copy of the Win XP Pro Resource Kit
Documentation but it offers no real help with your problem.
Good luck.
