Access Deployment problem in Uninstall

B

Bill

I deployed an Access 2003 app on a network after using the Developer's
extension's package wizard. Things are fine except when I try to
uninstall the app.

I did the install from a temporary network directory which was purged
before I could uninstall the app. So all the .msi files were gone.
When I try to remove from the "add remove programs" of Win 2000 I get a
message that the <appname>.msi file is missing.

I tried redeploying the app to reproduce the .msi files. I can't
redeploy to the original PC since I get the error "app already exists".
Instead I deployed on another networked PC. The .msi file was on the
network but "Remove" wouldn't recognize it as the correct one.

Any help?

Thanks

Bill
