<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Hello List,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I have an error that is giving me fits. I have a package made using MS development package wizard for XP and it has worked well for me for the last year. I redistributed and access runtime package (FE) that looks at a SQL (BE) within a confined office complex for 5 revisions. This has worked fine, until now. The process of putting a package together on a server on the network and getting access to it from the users work station appears to work fine. We are running Office XP with SP3 installed on all machines. We have a combination of windows 2000 and NT workstations at the users desks. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Here is the process I follow when installing on a users workstation. As I run the install process it starts running, opens, looks for available space, and on the NT workstations it then starts installing the Access Runtime files and then the 6mb adp file. On some of the 2000 workstations the install also runs with no trouble. On some of the 2000 workstations I get the following error in a Visual Basic 6.0 Setup Toolkit pop up dialog box:</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">"The Office System Pack cannot be installed in this system because it requires Windows NT4.0 Service Pack 6 or later".</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">After this error the installation terminates and says unsuccessful. Has anyone seen this error before? Any places to look on the development machine for something that I might have changed that is causing this problem? As always any help is welcome. Thank you all for your help and or suggestions.</FONT></P>
