All,

  FYI, I checked the Office 2007 EULA and can find nothing that says it
cannot be run under emulation.

  HIGHLY doubtful....given that Microsoft owns office and this is the
competition.

  Plus, if you read your EULA, you'll find already that Microsoft only
allows Office to run on Windows. 

  The VFP guys were really up in arms a few years back because a lot of them
were running VFP on Linux under WINE, Microsoft found about it and pointed
out that it was illegal because of the EULA.

There is a new OS being launched.

Don't yet know if it will support Access but there may be an opening here
for some gifted talent from this List....leaves me out by definition <g>
