[AccessD] A2003 Windows Installer

I've never been able to solve it myself or heard of any way to prevent it.
On OT there's been a long running thread on VPC which would seem to work
well - put any version of Office which won't play nice into a separate
virtual machine.

Subject: [AccessD] A2003 Windows Installer

I recently received a new machine from my employer.

My previous machine had A97 through A2003 installed with A2007 runtime for
testing.

Everything worked fine... well each time either A2003 or A2007 started the
first time the Windows installer would go through its thing.

On the new machine, in the beginning the IT folks couldn't get the different
version to play nice together.

After many uninstalls and reinstalls etc. I finally have A97, A2000,
A2003 and the A2007 runtime.

My issue is that EVERY TIME A2003 starts the Windows Installer begins and if
I hit cancel it cancels everything.

It starts even if I have another instance of it open and it doesn't matter
how many times I have opened it up in the past it still starts.

 

The IT folks say the next step in to uninstall everything on the machine and
reinstall all the software.

Does anyone know how to stop this from happening?  

 

MTA,

 

Jim H.
