Max, there are probably numerous others, but this is one I have read about recently. "Microsoft's Virtual PC does not support access to USB devices from within the VM. VMware Player does not have this problem." hth Darryl. -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com]On Behalf Of Max Wanadoo Sent: Sunday, 30 March 2008 8:08 PM To: 'Access Developers discussion and problem solving' Subject: Re: [AccessD] VM for different versions of Access Does anybody know if there is any essential difference between Virtual PC (which I believe is MS offering) and VMWare (which I believe is not MS)?

I'm using IE7, so that eliminates two of the files, but what would determine my choice among IE7_VPC.EXE, IE7_VIS1.exe, IE7_VIS2.rar, and IE7_VIS3.rar? My guess is IE7_VPC.EXE, simply because I see "vpc" in this name, and I have no idea what "vis1," "vis2," and "vis3" are. Have I guessed correctly? Okay, if I'm just dumb, I'm just dumb - but it would be nice to really know what I'm looking at and what I'm choosing when I download something. My past week's experience starting to learn about Linux has me very sensitive to the several "Swiss Cheese holes" in my knowledge. I am going to gamble on my guess and go download IE7_VPC.EXE.
