Access 2003 Getting started

[Reen]

I am in a new job that requires access 2003. I learned Access about five
years ago but have only some recollection how to use it. I went through the
tutorial in this site and thought I kind of understood, however, I cannot
even seem to get it started! I can't open the applcation. Sounds dumb, but
can someone help? Thanks.

How are you trying to open the application?

What happens when you try to open it? Any error messages?

Click Start - Programs and you should be able to find Microsoft Office 2003
or even Microsoft Access 2003. If you find Microsoft Office 2003, click on
it and you should then find Microsoft Access 2003.

If the above does not work for you, open Windows Explorer and go to My
Computer - C:\ - Program Files - Microsoft Access2003 - Office 11 and find
MSAccess.exe. Double click on it.
