SYMPTOMS
Moderate: Requires basic macro, coding, and interoperability skills.
RESOLUTIONIf you want to be able to use the options stored in the workgroup information file, create a backup copy of the file before you remove Microsoft Access from your computer. STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Access 7.0 and
Microsoft Office 97, Professional Edition. We are researching this problem
and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it
becomes available.
MORE INFORMATION
When you remove Microsoft Access from your computer, the Setup program does
not remove any database files or workgroup information files that you
created. You can still use those files with Microsoft Access on another
computer, or by installing Microsoft Access on your computer again.
However, Setup does remove the default workgroup information file
(System.mdw), which was created when you installed Microsoft Access. In
Microsoft Access 97, the default location for the System.mdw file is the
\Windows\System folder. In Microsoft Access 7.0, the default location is
the \MSOffice\Access folder.
