well the two major ones I can think of
1.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/904953/en-us

This functionality has now been disabled "permanently" with Office 2003
SP2.
"Because of legal issues, Microsoft has disabled the functionality in
Access
2003 and in Access 2002 that let users change the data in linked tables
that point to a range in an Excel workbook."
2.
 How you handle Office and Access Macro Security, there are various
options in archives.
Not really a problem for a single user as can be disabled from menus.

There are palso roblems with Outlook Forms and a lot of minor problems
if you do an adminstrative install to a whole series of machines.

If you run both Access 97 and 2003 from a non admin user you have to
change an .srg file.
