I just installed access 2007 and my access 2003
doesn't work. Missing references, code broken
all of there place. What's the groups opinion on
Access 2007? Is it worth the trouble?
There are many reports similar to yours that it "does not play well with
earlier versions of the same product" -- which previous Access versions
(mostly) did.Some are under the impression that Access 2007 is still to
"juvenile" a product to be implemented for production. I tend to agree, but
I encourage installing it on a development-only system where it is the only
version of Access, for exploration.
Database development is not a world of "deal with what we'd prefer"; like
most of computing, it's a world of "deal with what IS". Access 2007 "IS"
and it isn't going to go away, so it's worth the effort to learn and
explore.
