SYMPTOMS
If you have completed a custom installation of Microsoft Access or Microsoft Office on a Novell Netware server and you modified the STF file to specify that the Access wizards be installed locally, when you try to use the Access wizards, you may receive the following error message:

Microsoft Access can't find the wizard...



CAUSE
Microsoft Access does not recognize that the wizard file, Wzmain80.mde, is installed locally.



RESOLUTION
Repeat the custom setup procedure and include the executable file, Msaccess.exe, with those files to be installed locally.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Access 97. This problem no longer occurs in Microsoft Access 2000.
