[AccessD] Where is msaccess

Print SysCmd(acSysCmdAccessDir) will tell you exactly where access is
located. No need to search a folder, especially hard if you don't know the
name of the folder.

 Here is one method.

 1). Open a Ms/Dos window.
 2). Change to the root directory using -> "CD \"
 3). Type in -> "Dir msaccess.* /s/p"

 Leave off the " quotes in the Dos commands.
