I have no difficulty with any windoze software normally on my VBox,
which I keep well up-to-date. It was just the Access 2010 runtime
accessory which refused to run. I keep XP on my main machine under
VB so as to have access to a Sage Accounts setup. <br>
<br>
I've had to put the Access 2010 runtime on my backup machine which
has a barefoot Win7 partition for just such occasions. However, this
is the first time it's happened.<br>
<br>
They don't like it up 'em do they?<br>

Maybe your Vbox needs updating? - 2.1.2 supports up to
Win7....apparently<br>
