Hi,

I am having a bug w/ Access 2003 Package Wizard. It creates the setup.exe file fine, but when I run the setup.exe on another computer (Windows 2000), it does not run. I know why: I create the setup.exe in Windows XP and my target computer is Windows 2000. So, the shortcut name is:

"c:/program files/microsoft office/office11/MSACCESS.EXE" /runtime "application.mdb"
(pretend application.mdb is the name of my app)

BUT- there is no path w/ that name, the true path it created was:

"c:/program files/microsoft office XP/office11/MSACCESS.EXE"
(note the XP in the name..)

Does anyone know how to explicitly set the shortcut arguments using PACKAGE WIZARD? You can do this in InstallShield, but not sure if you can do it w/ Package Wizard.

Thanks for any help,

Christy.
