<DIV><BR></DIV> You will have problems with Ole Automation and
references to Excel Word Outlook if they are used, but by sacrificing a bit of
speed you can use late binding to default to to the installed version of Word
etc rather than using Word 9 or Word 10 libraries.<BR> Also make
sure your clients are all using the same version of Jet, I believe A2K
came with Jet SP3. You can get Jet SP6 from here which may
ameliorate your odd crashes. get the correct version for the OS. Before you
install SP6 on a computer that is running Windows 95, Windows 98, or
Windows NT 4.0, you must already have Jet 4.0 Service Pack 3 (SP3) or later
installed. You have at least Jet 4.0 (SP3) if the file msjet40.dll is version
4.00.2927.4 or later<BR><BR><A class=moz-txt-link-freetext

Other than that, I am pretty satisfied with AXP. I've had an occasional

Hi all,
