Woah, Lambert. I have just heard what I *think* is disturbing news.

If I upgrade to Windows 7, do I have to also upgrade to Office 2007?

I would like to keep 2003 without having to go into XP Compatability mode.
And does the 32bit or 64bit have any bearing on this.

This is turning out to be a minefield?

Try here

Says that there are drivers for Access. I'm guessing its ODBC drivers.

Does anybody have an info with regard to using Open Office in place of MS
Office, particularly with regard to integrating Access into it in the same
way as you can with Word and Excel?

 

Thanks
