Packaging an Access database

C

Connie

We are trying to add a desktop icon in our package with a specific path that
launches the database. When installed on the target computer, the path has
been changed. Something is added. See below details:

Development computer: WinXP OS
Target comupter: Win2000 OS

Packaged with 2002 runtime.

When installing on the Win2000, the desktop shortcut add the following after
"C:program Files". micros~3.

Does anyone know why this is happening and is there a solution?

Thanks
Connie

It is converting the path to a MSDOS naming convention... make sure your
path is enclosed in quotes

i.e.
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\name.mdb"

but either way I think it should work.
