If you are familiar with Access already, moving to 2007 is a distinct jolt and the ribbon can drive you nuts. I don't like Office 2007 for all the reasons I've already stated in this list. VSTO (which contains the Access extensions) is a standalone product that doesn't require Visual Studio. It isn't a free download, however. Used to be about $395, I think, but may be cheaper now that 2007 is out.

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
