Anyone have ideas as to why after upgrading to XP
professional, an Access97 macro will not run. This is the
command prompt.

"C:\PROGRAM FILES\MICROSOFT OFFICE\OFFICE\MSACCESS.EXE"
C:\SQLCDD\ALL_LNKS.mdb /X
TheBuild.GenerateSnapshot_4WIN95 /CMD FD*"

The command parts:
"C:\PROGRAM FILES\MICROSOFT OFFICE\OFFICE\MSACCESS.EXE"
starting access 97
C:\SQLCDD\ALL_LNKS.mdb - the program
/X TheBuild.GenerateSnapshot_4WIN95 - the macro call
/CMD FD* - the parameter
 
Office XP is installed into
PROGRAM FILES\MICROSOFT OFFICE\OFFICE10\
directory by default. Note the 10 after Office in the subfolder name.
