[AccessD] Sage Key Purchase

You could distribute royalty free with the developer edition of Office
too.  It's the same thing except they've taken it out of Office
entirely.  The runtime package for an Access 2003 app is HUGE.  We're
switching to VB.Net for future versions.

Karen:

Are you using the VSTO to package the run time?  I am facing this
decision 
myself right now.  Plan A would be to get the Action Pack and VSTO.

But plan B would be to get the SageKey script for A2K3.  I've already
got 
Wise.

My understanding is Microsoft dropped the whole royalty/developer thing
and 
you can distribute royalty free with A2K3 and VSTO package.

How big is the run-time package net of the application database (i.e., 
what's the overhead?)

Anyone have any opinions on Plan A vs. Plan B?

TIA,
