Direct the system to use your own system.mdw file by changing the registry setting.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
Software
Microsoft
Office
8.0 (for office/access 97)
9.0 (for office/access 2000)
Access
Jet
3.5 (for office/access 97)
4.0 (for office/access 2000)
Engines
SystemDB

The value in SystemDB is the workgroup file used by MS Access. If can place any valid (or invalid value) in this setting.

Scott.
