Access 97 and 2003 running together; Startup Menu

T

I am about to install Access 2003 on a computer with
Office 97. I read the stuff about the startup menu, and
am somewhat confused. Do I need to rename Access 97
stuff or not? The docs say that Access 2003 goes by
a different name on the startup menu, but also it suggests
renaming Access 97.

All you should need to do is ensure that they're installed in different
folders.

Note that whatever version of Access you used last will be the default one
if you double-click on an MDB file.

Renaming has the additional advantage of avoiding the error message which
occurs when opened with the incorrect version.
