Office 97 Pro Problem

[Adam Rivard]

Hi,

I'm attempting to put Office 97 Pro on a standalone
computer. Everything installs ok, but when I try to use
Access it tells me that there is no licence for that
program on the computer... But I installed it from a valid
Office 97 Pro CD... All the other programs work fine. I
want to know; is this a common problem? If so how do I fix
it? If not, will buying an Access 2003 upgrade (since
thats all I really need anyway) give me a licence to run
the program?

Thanks for the input!
Adam
