How do you make MS Access run over a terminal services connection? I get a
message "This copy of Access cannot be used with Terminal Services."
Please help.

I don't understand what your problems is, but I have been using Access with
Terminal Server and Citrix for quite some time.  Can you provide additional
details.  Where is the error being generated?

When I connect to a Terminal server and run Access on that server in the
Terminal services session I get the error.
Did you set any parameters while insalling Access so that it could be used
with Terminal Services?

For Office 2K and (most likely) XP there are instructions at
www.microsoft.com/Office/Ork/2000/two/30t3_2.htm for creating a custom .mst
file for installing Office on Terminal Server.

I still have some office 97 Access apps running on NT4 terminal Services and
Citrix that required no special instalation whatsoever.

It's my understanding that Office XP does not need the custom .mst
file to install on TS.

Pop the CD in the drive and click on setup.exe.

The problem was with the Access Runtime install, it has
been fixed in the Office XP Runtime install:

HOW TO: Install an Office XP Developer Run-Time Application to Terminal
Server
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;320585

With Access 2K a suggested solution was to do a full install
or use a modified installer:

MOD2000: You Cannot Install an Access Run-Time Application on Terminal
Server
