receive the following error message:

  Setup could not find Microsoft Access 2.0 installed locally on your system.
  Please install Microsoft Access 2.0 before installing this application.

RESOLUTION

be installed and to function properly.

MORE INFORMATION
================

You cannot perform an administrative installation of Microsoft Access to a
network server (with the SETUP /A command), perform workstation installations of
Microsoft Access from the server, and then install and use the Microsoft Access

the workstations before you can install the Upsizing Tools. A local Minimum or
