[AccessD] No Office 2003 ODE (Office Developer Edition)?

Hi Marty and Martin

I'm slightly confused ...

Does this mean you'll have to buy all this - in addition to Office
2003 Pro, of course - just to create an Access 2003 runtime:

  1. Visual Studio
  2. Visual Studio Tools for the Microsoft Office System
  3. Access 2003 Developer Extensions

as well as to soil your dearly beloved workstation with IIS?

And which version of Visual Studio? I don't have it as I've never had
a need for it.
