Default Access 2003 less functional than Access 97?

Look at this page:

http://support.microsoft.com/default...44&Product=3D=
acc

Now we know that using Microsoft Office 2003 we lose the Microsoft Photo =
Editor. Since we do not have that the directions of inserting a JPEG =
OLE object in an Access 2003 database on a form as an image will not =
work. For we do not have the option of choosing Microsoft Photo Editor =
because we do not have Microsoft Photo Editor in Microsoft Office 2003. =
But we do have Microsoft Photo Manager in Microsoft Office 2003. But =
the Microsoft Access 2003 team forgot to include that in the Insert =
Object... available Object Type.

Therefore Microsoft Access 2003 is less functional then Microsoft Access =
97 because Microsoft Office 97 had the Microsoft Photo Editor and =
Microsoft Office 2000 and Microsoft Office XP.

I may sound perturbed and I am. I really do not like upgradeing only to =
find out that I have downgraded the functionality of an application I =
assumed was being upgraded.

Finally I am noticing that if I choose say an Imaging Document then the =
ability to open a New file is not available so even if the Microsoft =
Photo Editor existed in Microsoft Office 2003 I suspect the directions =
would fail at Resolution step 5.

If anyone has a workaround that mimics what the above article was trying =
to solve for Access 2003 I would be forever greatfull. Thanks.
