Access 97 and 2003

[Bob Watson]

Can I install Access 97 on a machine that
already has Office 2003 installed??

Will they "play well" together??

Thanks

No problems: that's exactly the combination I have on my laptop at home.

If the user is not an Administrator of the
machine, then find MSAccess.srg and delete
the contents after installing A97.

In Windows XP, users who (do not have permission
to write to HKey_Local_Machine) can't use
A97 after using A2K3 unless MSAccess.srg
is empty.

This file controls A97 .mdb registration, so
on your own PC delete the contents of the
file if you don't want .mdb registration to
switch back to A97 when you use A97.
