So while we are on the subject, sort of, that last time I used a front end updater it was the Ted Avery version. Is there an up to date version for XP or another alternative out there? -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Keith Williamson Sent: Friday, October 01, 2004 2:44 PM To: 'Access Developers discussion and problem solving' Subject: RE: [AccessD] Publishing Application Okay....thanks. I was hoping there was something a little less expensive. :( I really don't intend to do this too often.....but we'll see how that goes. Thanks, Keith E.

Basically; Wise is a full-blown installation development program. SageKey is a company that writes scripts for the Wise or Install Shield products to provide foolproof Access Runtime Installations - which also don't allow your application to get screwed up by having the wrong version of Access already (or later) installed on the end user PC. This is a costly venture to be sure, but it is well worth it when it comes to having a professional looking installation that actually works on every PC regardless of what the end user has installed. And it cuts down tremendously on the support issues. I've used this combo for 5 years now and can honestly say I have had little if any problem with installations or version conflict. So, in essence, if you're in it for the long run it pays for itself.

Will the Access Runtime (for 2002) interfere with their version of Access? Thanks, Keith E.
