[AccessD] Access 97 and 2000 on same machine

Hi Andy,
I use a shortcut pointing to the appropriate Access executable as below
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office97\Office\MSACCESS.EXE" /wrkgrp "f:\rg
data\SYSTEM.MDW" "C:\Program Files\RG Orders\xxxxxxx.mdb"

Hi folks
I'm sure this was dealt with years ago but I can't find the answer. I'm
hitting this issue only now cos I've just been asked to support some new
(make that old) systems. Anyway, when you have A97 and A2K and are switching
between them how do you stop A2K going through a mini-install each time you
go back to it? The message is "Please wait while Windows configures
Microsoft Office 2000 Professional", a quick whizz of the progress bar and
all's ok, but it's irritating to see it many times a day.  If I Google this
message the MS solution's for something else and suggests making reg entries
that're already there, and there are lots of other suggestions which don't
fit me. Does anyone have the definitive solution? Can it be prevented at
all?
