SYMPTOMS
Advanced: Requires expert coding, interoperability, and multiuser skills.

Although you have a local installation of Microsoft Access, when you attempt to use the Microsoft Access Developer's Toolkit Setup Wizard to create disk images, you may receive the following error message:

Setup could not find Microsoft Access 2.0 installed locally on your system. Please install Microsoft Access 2.0 before installing this application.



RESOLUTION
Make sure you are using the UTILITY.MDA included with Microsoft Access 2.0. If you are using a file from any other source, the Setup Wizard may fail.

Also, check the [Options] section of the MSACC20.INI file to be sure that the path to the UTILITY.MDA is valid. To do so, open any text editor, such as Notepad. Open the MSACC20.INI file. (This file is located in your Windows directory). The [Options] section is the first section in the file. An example of a valid path to the UTILITY.MDA is as follows:   [Options] SystemDB=C:\MSOFFICE\ACCESS\system.mda UtilityDB=C:\MSOFFICE\ACCESS\utility.mda AllowCustomControls=1 AllowOLE1LinkFormat=0
