[AccessD] Access2000 crashing

I've had all 3 versions installed for years, and they were installed in separate folders in order from earliest to latest.   When I reinstalled Office 2000 just now, I un-installed 2003, installed 2000, then reinstalled 2003.

Everything is working all 3 versions except Access2000 (the one I use the most, of course).

  The only thing I can think of is that the popular wisdom here is that you
  need to install different versions of Office from earliest to latest - in
  your case 97, then 2000, then 2003.  Plus the updates.  Big PITA.  I'm not
  sure why that advice was given and wouldn't explain why it went south on you
  to begin with. But apparently installing them in a different order created
  some kind of problem. Are 97 and 2003 working OK then?

  Access2000 has started crashing whenever I try to open a database or create
  a blank database.   I've repaired Office2000 and then re-installed it, but
  it still crashes.   If I try to create a new database, it will bring up the
  database window, but then I immediately get the "Microsoft Access for
  Windows has encounter a problem and needs to close"  window.

  All my other Office 2000 programs are working.   All the updates are
  installed.

  I have Office97 and 2003 installed as well, but they have been there for
  years.   I'm not aware of any changes having been made to this computer.  I
  work with Access2000 95% of the time (still have clients using it), and it's
  been working fine.   I literally came back an hour after using it and it
  started crashing.

  On WindowsXP.


  Anyone seen this?   Any suggestions?
