There ya go! Way to stay cutting edge.... Windows 8 is almost out! ;) (Just ribbing ya a bit JWC) Drew -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of jwcolby Sent: Saturday, October 01, 2011 7:37 AM To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving Subject: [AccessD] The windows 7 upgrade experience I moved my 3 year old Dell M90 laptop to Windows. I purchased the Seagate Momentus XT hybrid drive (it has an SSD cache) and did a clean install of Windows 7 and started the migration. So much fun. I also installed Office 2003 and then Office 2010. Now, even though 2003 is the default when I double click an access database, if I right click in a directory and tell it to create a new database, it creates an Access 2010 database. Does anyone know where that property is stored / changed? Windows is soooooo much fun. I have to say I like Windows 7 much better than Vista. I realize it is really just Vista Service Pack 57 but it still just seems to work better. And I really like the combination of the Seagate XT drive and Windows 7 (clean install). So far it is booting to the logon in just a few seconds and from there to a usable desktop in just a few more seconds. And yea, I know that it may not stay that way after installing / uninstalling a jillion things. But for today it feels like a brand new computer. jwcolby Colby Consulting -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com The information contained in this transmission is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain II-VI Proprietary and/or II-VI Business Sensitive material.
