Split Database Setup

Hello,

I have a database that was created in Access 2000.  I would like to
distribute this as a split database application, but am unsure of how to do
it.  I haven't found much information, with the exception of this:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q162522/

I have the database split into a front end and a back end.  The part I'm
stuck at is creating the setup files.  The backend will be on a Windows NT
4.0 SP5 server (this can be changed if necessary), and the front end will be
on various Windows versions ranging from 98 to XP.

Does anyone have any information that would help me along in this little
project?

Thanks,
Megan

See the "Splitting your app into a front end and back end Tips" page
at http://www.granite.ab.ca/access/splitapp/ for more info.  See the
Auto FE Updater downloads page
http://www.granite.ab.ca/access/autofe.htm to make this relatively
painless..   The utility also supports Terminal Server/Citrix quite
nicely.

For more information on these, less likely causes, other tips and
links to MS KB articles visit my Access Performance FAQ page at
