I had the same problem, but as I tend to use Lotus Smartsuite 97 for wordprocessing and spreadsheet, I loaded the Lotus approach database that came with this. I have only tried a couple of simple reports, but it seems to work OK accessing the database through ODBC. I'm a bit rusty on database reporting so any software would take me a time to learn, but it doesn't seem too slow to build a report.

I know this was freely available on Magazine coverdisks a couple of years ago, so you may come across one somewhere. Or pick up an original version for a couple of pounds on ebay perhaps. Might be worth a try to see if it can do what you want.

There seems to be no workaround, except using Access 2000 or above. Some tables are password-protected.

Same for the whole Geo database, that is password-protected too.
