Workgroup for Access 97 changed by Access XP

A

Andy R

Has anyone any ideas how to stop Access XP resetting my
Access 97 Workgroup file to its default location and name

Access XP still has and uses its own workgroup file but
seems to change the Jet 3.5 registry setting when I run it

I need both versions to access old 97 databases and new
files

Start each database using a seperate shortcut. Have each shortcut use the
/wrkgrp switch to select the workgroup file to use on that run. By that
means, you are not relying on the name & location of any default workgroup
file. Google on /wrkgrp & you will doubtless find more info. on this.

HTH,
TC
