We have Win2000 Pc/workstations with Access 97 & Access 2000 residing
somewhat comfortably  on them.   We have had considerable trouble with all
of Office2000 but I think it is the way the image was built by the
installation group. GRRR.  From what I have heard THEY are having a problem
getting Access2003 to reside with Access 97 on WinXP.

The backends are on a winNT server - have not idea at the moment whether
this will be updgraded.


Thanks
Patti
