Hi Susan

As far as I know, Access 1.x and 2.0 are the only versions that run on
Windows 3.1x. So that shock - moving from Win 3.1x to a Win32 platform
- will only happen for those moving now from Access 2.0 and lower
(running on Win 3.1x!) to Access 95 or higher.

How many could that be??
Is any member of this list running Access 2.0/Win 3.1x exclusively?
Please step forward.
