My machine has BDE Administrator installed on it, as I have a couple of databases that I access through it. BDE is apparently still working since my access to these databases hasn't been affected, however, when I double click on the "BDE Administrator" icon in my control panel, nothing happens. No error messages, and BDE doesn't open. Just nothing. I was wondering if anyone has run into this problem before and might know how to deal with it.

Thanks for the help.
 
This happened to me once after setting up a new PC. As I recall it was, believe it or not, the video setup. For some reason, BDEAdmin is sensitive to how your video is configured. I don't recall what parameter, but I do recall shaking my head about it.

Getting answers before I'm asked.
Providing answers if I can.
