ID: Q160121
|
The information in this article applies to:
-
Microsoft Access versions 7.0, 97
-
Microsoft Office 97 Professional Edition for Windows
SUMMARY
Moderate: Requires basic macro, coding, and interoperability skills.
The Setup program for Microsoft Access 7.0, Microsoft Access 97, and
Microsoft Office 97, Professional Edition does not create a shortcut for
the Workgroup Administrator program on Microsoft Windows 95 or Microsoft
Windows NT 4.0 computers. This feature is by design, and differs from
earlier versions of Microsoft Access.
MORE INFORMATION

creating or joining a new workgroup information file.
The following steps create a shortcut to the Workgroup Administrator under
Programs on the Start Menu:
- Click the Start button, point to Settings, and then click Taskbar.

tab.

97, the default location for the Workgroup Administrator file is the
Windows System folder. In Microsoft Access 7.0, the default location is
C:\MSOffice\Access.
- Click Next to advance to the "Select a Title for the Program" dialog
box.
- Type the name you want to assign to the shortcut, such as MS Access
Workgroup Administrator, and then click Finish.
