Access Developer

[Peter F]

Hi All,

We are about to enroll on a mini project and as part of the rollout new
machines are to be installed. Some user's have an application called Access
Developer. I would like to know if we install Access 2003 Pro would that be
sufficient for them e to continue with their Access Development?

Could anyone answer or point me in the right direction.

Regards.

I assume that ACCESS Developer is the developer version of ACCESS 2002, but
you'll need to confirm that.

If it is, this version of ACCESS allows the owner to create runtime versions
of ACCESS applications, where other users then can use the application
without having ACCESS installed.

Office 2003 Professional includes ACCESS 2003, but it does not include a
developer version of ACCESS 2003. So you would not be able to make 2003
runtime applications any more. However, you could have both 2002 and 2003
versions on the same PC, so you could continue using the 2002 Developer
version to create 2002 runtime applications.

Hi Ken,

Thanks for this information. I need to go back to the users to establish
what exactly they use the Developer application for.

Thanks very much.

To add to Ken's posting. If this is the Developer version typically
only one or two people in an organization would need such.
