I've been avoiding Vista and recommending clients do the same. I don't see anything compelling enough in Vista except for bit locker to warrant spending the money for the required hardware and software updates. I would say 75 - 80% of my clients would need to replace just about every piece of hardware they have in order to use all the features. Most could run the watered down version; but why bother? <<And that I should be looking at the Access Extensions Developer Kit and not Visual Studio. >> The Access 2003 Developer Extensions are part of the new Visual Studio Tools for the Microsoft Office System software package. You do not need Visual Studio or Visual Studio .NET. It includes the following products: Visual Studio Tools for the Microsoft Office System Microsoft Office Access 2003 Developer Extensions Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Developer Edition Microsoft Visual Basic .NET Here's the link: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/vstudio/aa718673.aspx Jim. -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Tony Septav Sent: Wednesday, June 06, 2007 10:56 AM To: accessd at databaseadvisors.com Subject: [AccessD] Advice Please Hey All I am planning on upgrading to a new version of ACCESS and a new machine. Am I correct from what I have been reading that I should be going to Access 2003 and Windows XP and to avoid Access 2007 and Vista. And that I should be looking at the Access Extensions Developer Kit and not Visual Studio. Any advice will be appreciated, remember this is an old dog trying to learn new tricks. -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com
