Startup	I cannot find the way to start Eurobridge	There should be an icon on your desktop that you can click. If that does not work, you must double click on EuroBridgeXX.mde (XX means 97 or 2000) in the directory C:\EuroBridge.
Startup	EuroBridge does not launch when I start it.	Make sure MS-Access is installed properly. You should rerun the MS-Office install program and install all the missing items.
Startup	When I try to start EuroBridge the MS-Access is started, but trying to open the EuroBridge file I get the message "MDE file cannot be converted or activated"	You are using the wrong version of EuroBridge. There is a difference between EuroBridge97 and EuroBridge2000 and Access .MDE files cannot be converted. I recommend, saving disk-space, to delete all files from the wrong version, download the correct one and start again.
Import	Some tournaments have been imported. Yet I cannot use them	You may have expirienced a crash while importing the tournaments. You should make sure that the tournaments contained in the import file are not present on your disk and try again.
Message	Sometimes the computer shows a warning that somebody else changed the record, and I am unable to make this message disappear.	The Access record locking system is responsible for that. It creates a file with the same name as the program, but with the extension LDB. EuroBridge is supposed to erase this file when closing, but sometimes the removal fails. You can then erase it manually. EuroBridge should not be working when you do that.
Slow Start	When EuroBridge starts it initiates the Auction screen twice and that takes quite a while.	This happens only for the first board you play. EuroBridge is then restoring the situation for the last board you have played and at the beginning of the Auction. This will only be noticeable with a slower processor.

	Your computer should have a processor that runs at 200 MHz or better, it's video system should support 256 colours and a minimum of 100 Mb free space on the disk where EuroBridge is installed.Every aspect, being better in your configuration, will improve the EuroBridge performance	If you have MS-Office97-pro fully installed there should be no problem, nor should there be any problem if you have MS-Access 5.0 installed on your computer. We recommend checking these installation parameters before installation of EuroBridge.	If you have MS-Office2000 fully installed there should be no problem, nor should there be any problem if you have MS-Access 5.2 installed on your computer. We recommend checking these installation parameters before installation of EuroBridge.
	When you unzip the EuroBridge file, a start-up icon will be created on your desktop. If you have 'Active Desktop' installed, then there will also be a quick launch button for EuroBridge on your task bar.	The active program file is EuroBridge97.mde. If all else fails you should double click on this file to launch EuroBridge. You can also use the start-up Window; therein you have to type C:\EuroBridge\EuroBridge97.mde to launch EuroBridge.	The active program file is EuroBridge2000.mde. If all else fails you should double click on this file to launch EuroBridge.
