Install multiple versions of access?

I have a user who is using MS Office 2K2 with Access 97 installed to a
separate folder, and without Access 2K2. She needs to install Access 2K2 in
order to get to her 2K2 databases. If we install 2K2 to the MS Office folder
as normal, will this help with any problems, i.e., can she just open/close
databases without problems?

If you install 2k2 you will no longer need 97. 2k2 is backward compatible. So
when you try to open an access 2000 or access 97 database you will get a
dialog asking you if you want to convert the file. 2k2 allows you to save
down to 97 and for the most part, unless you are using 2k2 specific (new
features) functions, there shouldn't be any problems sharing files..
