Can I create a snapshot from RUNTIME?

Some users just have Acc97 RUNTIME and not full Access.
I rolled out a new app today to a user who only has hte runtime,
and I'd be afraid to allow him Access anyways.
The code bombs at the docmd.OutputTo line, with an error message
that indicates that the .snp file cannot be created,

Was the runtime distribution up to Service Release 1 or higher? If so then
the ability to create snapshots should be there. In some cases the registry
entries for SNP are missing even though the capability is there.

I have a feeling that snaphots came out after A97 was released,and to use them you have to expicitly
load the snapshot software on each machine.
Maybe see http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=175274

The ability to generate snapshot files was added with Service Release 1 of
Office 97.
The *Viewer* at your link is only for *Viewing* snapshot files and is never
required for creating them. Additionally it does not add the ability to create
snapshots to a system if it does not already have that capability.
