SYMPTOMS
When you install the new Setup Wizard included with the Microsoft Access version 2.0 Service Pack, the templates you had already defined in the Setup Wizard are lost.
CAUSE
The new version of the Setup Wizard overwrites the older one when you unpack it with the Decomp utility included with the Service Pack. When the older version of the Setup Wizard is overwritten, the existing templates contained in it are overwritten as well.
RESOLUTION
To work around this behavior, you can import the templates in the older Setup Wizard into the new version. To do so, follow these steps.
NOTE: You must follow these steps before installing the new Setup Wizard. If you have already installed the new Setup Wizard (and overwritten the older Setup Wizard) these steps will not work.
- Rename the older Setup Wizard file from SETUPWIZ.MDB to SETUPWIZ.BAK.
- Install the new Setup Wizard following the instructions in the Service Pack.
- Start Microsoft Access. While pressing the SHIFT key, open the SETUPWIZ.MDB file. (Pressing the SHIFT key while opening a database prevents the database's Autoexec macro from running.)
- From the File menu, choose Import. In the Data Source box, select Microsoft Access, and then choose the OK button.
- In the File Name box, select SETUPWIZ.BAK, and then choose OK.
- In the Import Objects dialog box, select the zws_SetupTemplates table and then choose the Import button.
- Repeat step 6 for the zws_TemplateFiles table.
- After the tables are imported, choose the Close button.
- Delete the zws_SetupTemplates and zws_TemplateFiles tables. These are the empty tables from the new Setup Wizard.
- Rename the zws_SetupTemplates1 table to zws_SetupTemplates. Rename the zws_TemplateFiles1 table to zws_TemplateFiles.
- Quit Microsoft Access and delete the SETUPWIZ.BAK file.
