Best way to do it. Otherwise you'll eventually go nuts proofing your apps against each combination of Windows/Office versions. I keep a clean copy of each OS and then duplicate it and add the various versions of office or other apps as needed. It's a good thing hard drives are so big and cheap now. -----Original Message----- From: dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Rocky Smolin Sent: Tuesday, January 21, 2014 9:02 AM To: 'Discussion of Hardware and Software issues' Subject: Re: [dba-Tech] VirtualBox I found it - well Bartow told me the secret.
