Windows 7 and Access Runtime 2000 or 2003

[Serghik]

Hi,
i have a question about compatibility Windows 7 and Access Runtime 2000 or
2003.
I hope, it will be possible to run Access 2000 Database on Windows 7, but
actually i didn't find any reports about this from Microsoft.

I doubt you will find such information from Microsoft. I would
suggest running the compatibility checker tool, whatever it's called,
that I'm sure is available for download.

Also, if you have it available, I'd go with Access 2003 runtime as it
is basically a service pack for A2000. Or even move straight to
A2007 runtime as it is free.

Access 2003 has MOUNTAINS of functionality that is not available in
Access 2000.

I swear to god Tony, you are the MOST MIS-INFORMED PERSON on this
whole newsgroup.

It's called egocentrism.

And not only are you a stupid ****ing idiot-- you're also self
centered.
You think that your experience is a _FACT_.

Your experience is not a fact-- it is a sad sad thing that-- just
because you've never used any of the features in Access 2000, 2002 or
2003-- you somehow think that these are all the same.


SORRY TONY, but just because you don't use DAP, Olap, ADP,
XML,PivotTables and SharePoint--
that doesn't mean that nobody else uses those features.

JUST BECAUSE YOUR DATABASE DOESN'T RUN OVER WIRELESS DOES NOT MEAN
THAT EVERYONE ELSE MUST WEAR THE SAME HANDICAP THAT YOU DO.
