MS Access 97 Issue

Problem: I installed MS Access 97* on a machine today at the request of a user. When I launched the application for an initial test, I got the following message: "Microsoft access cannot start because there is no license for it on this machine".

Solution: This is apparently a known problem caused by a font file, of all things!! Thank God for my IT colleagues who are nice enough to document these things on the internet. Because there isn't any way in HELL that I would have ever figured it out. When I keyed in the message to do a search for the problem, the first hit on the list was: http://www.howtodothings.com/showarticle.asp?article=624 , documented by Peter Morris.

Peter's solution:

1. Find the font named Hatten.TTF in your {windows}\fonts folder (usually c:\windows\fonts).
2. Rename the file to Hatten.TTFX
3. Reinstall MS ACCESS
4. Rename the font file back to Hatten.TTF

The location of the font file was C:\winnt\fonts in my case, but the solution was the same. THANK YOU Peter!!! (If you're not the one who originally found the answer to this, I apologize to him or her; at least thanks to you for documenting it).
*NOTE: If anyone else in the world is still using Access 97, get off of it!! It's 7 years old........ Please!
