use 98 access database with XL MS student teacher

[Guest]

I am upgrading from 98 to XL & going from Office Business to the the Student
Teacher Version of Office, which does not include Access. How can I use my
Access database? Do I need to purchase it seperately and is it available? I
don't want all my files to be lost.

If you have the original Access 97 installation CD, you can install it
before installing the newer Office version. Make sure you install it to a
different location than the default one ( C:\Program Files\Microsoft
Office\Office\ )

I always create a folder with the Office version on it, and use that:

C:\Program Files\Office97\
