Office97 Help

Hi. We have a couple of apps that still use the Access97 runtime. I've
gotten quite tired of running to PC's with a cd to install Access so I
wanted to make an administrative installation on the server, but I only want
Access97 to be available, not all of Office.

Is there a way to do this?

Thank you

Found the solution. I found the Network Installation Wizard which I guess
was the precursor to the CIW in the Office xp and 2000 Resource Kits. I
made a full install of Office 97 on the network, setup /a, then used the
Wizard to create a custom install of what I wanted installed, put the
command that runs that custom install into a batch file, called it
Setup_Access.bat and run that to get Access97 only.

Be wary though, you need to rename Hatten.ttf before running an Access97
install on a machine with a later version of Office first!
