Hi Reuben,
But the big question is - does it work in Illinois?

;o)

In my experience, the Access Runtime is installed in a folder with RT(run
time) in the path.  This differentiates it from a standard Access install.

I have never had any installation problems using Access Runtime and the
Package and Deployment wizard.  But, then again, I only have about 300
installs around the state of Indiana; maybe I haven't tried it enough yet.

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,
This is where the Wise Install Builder & SageKey Scripts come into play.
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.

John

Okay....let me ask this....What happens if the user Does have access, but a
different version.  Will the Access Runtime (for 2002) interfere with their
version of Access?

Create an Access Runtime installation.
