Hi Charlotte et all I think I understand what is needed to develop _and_ distribute Access 2003 apps. But I have to browse a dozen messages with acronyms like VSTO etc., and I'm convinced that at the time I may need to upgrade I'll have to spend half an hour browsing old messages to rebuild the knowledge ... Now, if someone confident with the ins and outs of this, including the possible upgrade paths, could summarise it - perhaps including the MS part numbers and full official description - it would be great if this could be added to the Database Advisors' site. Then, as this question will pop up several times in the future - we could just refer to that page. /gustav > That is correct, it is no longer part of Office, but the runtime is also > part of VSTO.
