[AccessD] Upgrading to Access 2002 from A2K

Hi Mark:

I had some problems with A2K running on WinXP but after there was an upgrade
to AXP the specific set of problems have seemed to disappear. There were
some code issues and they were fixed and it seems to be a stable product
except forr one issue. I found was the references did not seem to initially
auto-connect and I had to check every API call.

Hi all,

  Recently my computer died due to power source failure, though I was able
to recover files later.  I was due to upgrade my computer here anyway, so I
now have a new computer with Windows XP, the old one was Windows 2000.  We
have yet to do any work in Access 2002.  Some of our clients use that, but
we just send Access 2000 versions.

  I never used to have problems with Access 2000, though I have read many
posts from people who had.  Now that I have Windows XP,  I am having crashes
all the time, with the "Send Error Report"  dialog box.  Twice in the last
couple weeks I have had things get corrupted so bad that I just had to
restore my file from an earlier version and flush my work for the day down
the toilet.  Based on what I am hearing of Access 2002, I am thinking that I
should just upgrade to that, even though I work in 2000 file format.  Are
there any downsides to doing that?  Thanks for any advice.
