don't have XP and 97 (I have 97 and 2k though), and installing on different
drives only solves 1 of the concerns about dual installations. When you
install 'upwards', you can tell 2k and XP to keep previous versions, this
prevents it from overwriting registry entries for previous versions. Even
with that option, you need to install in a different directory (since the .exe's
are named the same), and one other item, is you need to 'rename' the program
folder (in your start menu, because the new version will overwrite the old
versions shortcuts....I know that's cosmetic, but it's something to keep in
mind).</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=057111721-04032003><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>However, installing backwards, 97 is not aware of 2k or XP, so it can
very easily write over registry settings it doesn't know need to be set a
particular way.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

size=2>There isn't much problem running AXP and A97 on the same drive because
they use different dlls (for the most part) and are based on different
versions of VB. It's AXP and A2k that create havoc when run
together. Unfortunately, different drives don't solve the problems
because the dlls are still installed on your system drive.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

[AccessD] Access 2002 and 97 on separate partitions<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=820005318-04032003><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi
All,</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=820005318-04032003><FONT face=Arial size=2>My PC is
partitioned into two drives C: & D: Access 2002 is installed on
the C: and I would like to install Access 97 on the D: drive so I get get
some decent Help back. Since two different drives are involved I don't
think I need to take any special precautions, am I correct here? I
know you have to be careful when installing different versions on the same
drive.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
