When trying to install an access 97 run-time application on a customer's
Vista machine, I get the following error message: oleaut32 support file
was
unable to register itself in the system registry

Office 2000 (including access 2000 - version 9.0) has previously been
installed on this computer. Note - before attempting to install the
access
97 run-time, I renamed (the access 2000 version) msaccess.exe.

Any suggestions on how to successfully install the run-time app? My
application has been successfully installed on other customer's Vista
machines, but not being familiar with Vista I do not know the differences
in
the environments.
