Office 2007 use thru Citrix

I have the following scenario:
Windows 2003 Citrix Xenapp 5.0 server
Installed Office 2007 (used msp)
Published Access 2007 and for content redirection I have used just the 2007 extensions and all the extensions (same result either way).
My problem is that Access 2007 launches with errors in citrix. I get the following error message:
Microsoft Access can't find the database file '*mdb.'
Make sure you entered the correct path and file name.
I am not trying to open a file, just launch the application.
the path I am using is:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office1\msaccess.exe" "%**"
If I use the pathname without the additional "%**", the error becomes:
Can't find the database you specified, or you didn;t specify a database at all.
Specify a valid databse name in the command line, and include a path if necessary.
Access then launches, but this is not the best for users.
Word launched, but it opened a file instead of a blank file-again not good.
Keeping in mind that if these apps are launched on the server, there are no problems. Each opens properly (word is blank file and access asks if you want to open or create a file).

Why are you running:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office1\msaccess.exe" "%**"
and just not
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office1\msaccess.exe"
Also, how about opening a template MDB file and having it open upon launch.
