Access 97 and Windows 2003 Server

[G. Vaught]

I have a client who upgraded to Windows 2003 Server (not informed until
after the fact) and is using an old 97 based Access program for his Courier
service. He is having trouble getting it to open, so he emailed me.

I emailed back indicating that Access 97 may not be able to run on 2003
Server and that is why it is closing on him or coming up blank. I want to
confirm this statement with the experts before I give him a definitive
answer.

Thanks for anyones response to this question.

I found that server 2003 appeared to have some issues in a Terminal Server setup
with Access 97's low-priority cpu usage, but other than that it "ran" just fine.
