Access is not installed with Office 2003

[Guest]

I've installed Office 2003, but I can't open Access. The program is in
Program files, but when I click the icon I get the message "This application
must be installed to run. Please run setup from the location where you
originally installed the application." What can I do to open Access?

Thank you.

1. Access is almost always installed with Office Professional. Open up
Microsoft Word then go to Help, About Microsoft Word. If you don't see the
word "Professional" in the first few lines, there's a 99.9% chance that
Access was not installed nor can be from your Office disk. You will need to
buy Access seperately or as an upgrade to Office Professional.

2. Find your MS Office 2003 disk. Does it say "Professional" on it? If so,
put the disk in and install Access.

3. If you are working in an office environment and have System
Administrators or IT people in charge of your computers, ask them to do it.

I am not sure what your problem is, but Access is not part of most
versions of Office 2003. It is only part of Office Professional 2003.

It is possible that a "trial" version was included in the install and it
may have run it's time.
