Access 2007 engine

[Ed K]

What is the full path name to the Access 2007 engine? I have been given an
older version of an Access database (front-end and back end files), and an
installation shortcut that provides the full path to "MSACCESS.EXE".

The path name that the installation routine now provides is "C:\Program
Files\Microsoft Office\Office\MSACCESS.EXE" . Of course, this is not correct
on my Vista machine, using Access 2007.

BTW, I cannot just launch the front-end database. Trying to do so gives me
a meesage that I do not have the necessary permissions to do so, something
the installation routine will give me.

Perfect, found msaccess.exe in the path your provided, changed the path name
in the routine, launched the routine, and I am up and running.
