Access 2000 request insertion of Disc 2

Running Windows 2000 (SP4 & all post sp4 patches) with Office 2000 Premium
Disc One and Two (SP3 and post sp3 patches), which has been installed via a
custom install to "run all" from my computer. If I create a new DB, it will
open correctly and allow me "build away" - However, when i open other DB's,
the windows installer screen kicks in and requests that I insert Disc 2 of
Office 2000 Premium. Given that Access is on Disc one, why does it ask for
Disc 2 and is there a long term solution? I've found that if I uninstall
Publisher, this resolves the issue - but I use Publisher, so it's not really
a long term option. Any Idea anyone?

Regards,

Chris.
 
Since it only happens with existing databases, I would guess that there is a
reference to something that it thinks is on disc 2. Open one of the old
databases and open the code editor (Alt+F11). Go to Tools|Reference and
compare the list to the list in a new database. If MS DAO 3.6... is selected
in the old database, that's fine. It won't be selected by default in a new
database, but also shouldn't be the problem.
