Errors using multiple versions of Access under Vista

As the article explains, the issue is that Windows Vista doesn't give Access
enough priviliges to re-write the registry when it loads.

Is it possible to run Access 97 on Windows Vista? I have installed Access
97 and Access 2000, when I run Access 2000, then try to open Access 97 it
says it cant find the windows registry entries? Re-Installing Access 97
seems to fix it until I open Access 2000 again.

I have run both Access 97 and Access 2000 on all previous versions of
windows without any problems.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
