I have A2K on my computer (XP Home) to support a couple of A2K datbases.
Now I have to support some AXP databases.

Can Access2000 and Access XP live and work on a single computer?

TIA
Jim
 
Yes, they can coexist. When you're installing Access 2002, make sure it's
not being installed into the same folder as Access 2000, and make sure you
uncheck the option to delete previous versions. Note, however, that Access
2002 can work with Access 2000 databases. In fact, the default file format
in Access 2002 is the Access 2000 format. (You just won't be able to use any
of the new features of Access 2002 in the Access 2000 databases)
