If you are trying to install Access 97 on Windows XP, and you are getting an error about there not being a license on the machine when you try and start Access 97 up, take a look at this article at Microsoft: 141373 – ACC: “There Is No License” Error Message Starting Microsoft Access.
Renaming the font hatten.ttf to hatten.xxx and reinstalling Access worked for me (don’t forget to change the name of hatten back though!).
