I have a fully licensed MS office 2000 and Office 97. My
problen started when I installed Office 2000 (except
Access 2000 program) and re-install only the Access for
Office 97 for database reasons. but everytime I attempted
to open the access 97, I got a meassage "Microsoft Access
can't start because there's no license for it in this
machine". I know there's a solution to this matter, but I
don't know how.
I appreciate it very much, if someone could help me.

Thanks

Hi Ramon

This is covered in Article Q141373

"There is no license" Err. Msg. Starting Microsoft Access

which reads in part as follows:
===============================

Microsoft Access is not properly registered on your computer. When you
start Microsoft Access, it checks the Windows Registry for the following
entry:

\\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Licenses\B54DCF20-5F9C-101B-AF4E-00AA003F0F07

If this entry is missing, you receive the error message.

RESOLUTION
==========

There are two ways to resolve this error message. You can uninstall
Microsoft Access on your computer, and then reinstall it.

-or-

You can run the Microsoft Access Setup program using a command line switch
(/y) to reset your computer's Registry. To reset the Registry, follow these
steps:

1. In Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0, click the Start button, then click
Run (or in Windows NT 3.51, click Run on the File menu in Program
Manager or File Manager).

2. Type a command to run the Microsoft Access Setup program using the /y
switch, for example:

A:\Setup /y

3. In the Installation Maintenance Program box, click Reinstall. The

Setup program updates the system Registry for Microsoft Access. When
Setup is complete, start Microsoft Access.

Just be aware that the download will only work with Windows 98. As far as
I'm aware, you can actually corrupt things if you use it on any other OS.
