Acess97 and 2003

[Lauren Greenspon]

I'm supporting Access applications written in 97 and my
boss wants me to do any new work in 2003 can I have both
versions installed like with 97 and 2000?

Thanks,
Lauren

Absolutely!

Just install 97 first, and remember after starting Access 97 the first time,
you'll want to find the msaccess.srg file and rename it. Then create a new
empty one with notepad, naming it the same.

That will keep Access 97 from silently reregistering itself every time you
run it.
