Why is it that if I type calc
then enter in the command line the calculator opens, but when I type MSAccess in the command line it says
'msaccess' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or bath file
I know there is a way to fix this and set it up, I have searched the web, but I don't know what to look for. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The error message means that there is no executable program named
msaccess
available anywhere on your path. "The path" refers to a list of paths search by the command line when searching for an executable. This list is stored in the%PATH%
environment variable, and is separated by semi-colons.There are only a few possibilities:
C:\Program Files
and verify that it is really spelledmsaccess
(and that it is installed). Incidentally, I just verified this on my system, somsaccess
would appear to be the correct command.msaccess
is not in the%PATH%
variable. Typeecho %PATH%
to find out. If not, you can add it to the path.
