access 2002 runtime in Window 7

L

Error message: "The Office System Pack cannot be installed on this system
because it requires Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 6 or later " occurs when
installing an Access 2002 mde file with access 2002 runtime, using Microsoft
2002 Developer Package Installer into a Windows 7 system.

I fixed this problem for installing into earlier versions of Windows by
correcting references in the Ospfilelist.txt file. My program installs fine
into earlier versions of Windows, but that fix does not work in Windows 7.

This question was answered in another newsgroup.

For Windows 7 also remove the AGENTSVR.EXE line from the OSPFILELIST
file. See
