I cannot get the CE to modify any of the original scenarios. I can't even open them. I have XP w/sp2 and Access 07.
How do I modify any of the original scenarios?
I am quite the newbie to this and need step by step directions.
Can someone help me so I can enjoy the game?

I'm not sure what you mean by the 'CE'. Are you able to open the Scenario Editor (SE)?

All my icons look like the winharp 32. I have an icon for Larry Bonds Commanders edition
Scenario editor, but when I click on it it says" 16 bit operating system c\windows\system32\autoexec.nt - file not suitable for running ms-dos and windows apps." It gives me the option to either ignore or close. When I hit ignore it just closes.

Please take a look at http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=1633589 , specifically the section about the SE not running.  I would guess that you had a virus attack once upon a time and the damage is still in place.  Post again as you need more help.
