Hi all,

I gather that the problems I'm having getting D3 to work with Access 97
are not unique.  It seemed to work OK when I upgraded from Access 95 to
Access 97, but it won't work on a fresh install of Access 97.  Also I
had no luck getting an install program working with InstallShield
Express, D3 and and Access database.

My question: does D4 work cleanly with Access97, and is it possible to
write an installation  program (assuming Inprise still bundles an
install tool with D4) that sets up the BDE, the aliases, and the app for
a program that talks to Access 97?  I'm not about to shell out $$ for an
upgrade to InstallShield, but I would consider it for Delphi.  Any
suggestions, or should I just dump Access?

Thanks in advance,

Dan
