Installing Access97

[Tom]

When trying to install Access97 upgrade I get the
error "No qualifying products found...". I have Office
SBE 97 installed on pc running WinXP. I tried inserting
the office97 cd and having it look there but that did not
help. I found Knowledge Base Article 167589 but it had no
solution. Access97 installed fine on old pc with Win98.
Can anyone help?

Office SBE is not a qualified upgrade path to Access since it did not
include Access. It included the Access Runtime, but not the fully licensed
version. If you want to add Access to a PC with a version of Office that
did not originally include the fully licensed version of Access then you
need to purchase a FULL Version of Access, not an upgrade version.
