Moderate: Requires basic macro, coding, and interoperability skills.



SYMPTOMS
When you install Microsoft Access version 2.0 on a computer running Microsoft Windows NT version 3.1, and you choose to install the Microsoft Access icons in an existing common group such as Applications (Common), Microsoft Access Setup creates a new group called Applications (Common)(Common) and places the Microsoft Access icons in this group instead of in the group you chose.



CAUSE
This behavior is caused by a problem in Microsoft Windows NT version 3.1.



RESOLUTION
After Microsoft Access Setup finishes, move the Microsoft Access icons to the correct group and delete the new group.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Windows NT version 3.1. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
