Install program build on Access 2003 on Window 7?

E

Ed

I have an application designed by a professional progammer that was built on
Access 2003 with VBA. I am going to give it to students to run on their
laptops. Some of them may have Vista or Window 7 operating systems. Will the
application install and run? It installs with a 2003 RT version. I have
found that the RT has to be removed when install on a machine with Office
2007.

Whether or not it'll work on Vista or Win7 depends on whether the
application was packaged correctly. Both Vista and Win7 are stricter about
where the application (i.e. the MDB or MDE) can be installed.

I'm curious, though, as to your comment that "the RT has to be removed when
install on a machine with Office 2007". What makes you say that?
