Access 2007 Runtime

[DJJ]

I am looking to update a major Access 2000 database to 2007 but I have been
hearing that Access 2007 Runtime has some major bugs that might affect
functionality or security. Does anyone know where I can find some
clarification about this?

Thanks
DJ

having some problems too with mine. if I were you, I'd find another
database.

I am looking to update a major Access 2000 database to 2007 but I have been
hearing that Access 2007 Runtime has some major bugs that might affect
functionality or security.

Hearing where? Do you have some URLs?

Security? No. Microsoft is paying very close attention to security.

Functionality. Yes, but Office 2007 SP1 solves most of the problems.
Not all of them.

However the runtime is not currently patchable by SP1. Microsoft are
working very hard on ensuring this is fixed. I would expect something
shortly as in the next month or so if not sooner.

Then I suggest you find another database. Good luck in finding one
with the power and functionality of Access.
