Problem Opening Access

[PEmpson181]

I have Microsoft Office 97 installed and can't open Access. I get an error
message that says " Microsoft Access can't start because there is no llicense
for it on this computer".

It had previously worked but now it won't. I am using Windows XP and have
Microsoft Word 2000 installed instead of Word 97.

Any idea what the problem may be? The other components (Excel, etc.) work just
fine.

I have upgraded from Windows ME to XP-Home, and am
getting the same message. All other Office 97 Pro work
except Access.

Hi: I just found this below. Tried it and it worked.

Simply follow the instruction as follows at:

Renaming the specific font type, then reinstalled Access,
rename font back and "good to go"

Occasionally, after installing Office 97 on Windows XP or Windows 2000, a
user may receive the following message: "Microsoft Access can't start
because there is no license for it on this machine." This problem is
usually due to a misbehaving font. The fix for that problem, should it
occur, is found at:
