Installable ISAM w/97 & 2000 (1 Viewer)

[fpendino]

I have Office 2000 installed on my pc, but also have access 97 installed. Everything works fine except when I am importing/exporting an excel file. I have already installed a service pack that fixed the import/export process for text files, but I want to know if there is something else I have to do since I have 97 & 2000 installed on the same pc other than reinstalling.

By the way the error message I get is 'Couldn't find installable ISAM'.

This error message refers to certain ISAM drivers missing. The Microsoft web site has the answer.

I have tried the suggested link and am still having the same problem.

When I open Access 2000, the Excel file type is listed, but not in Access 97. Are there any other fixes for this, or is it safe to say that I'll have to get rid of Office 2000 for this to work.

Thanks!!
