My company needs to continue to use access 97'.  Is there
anyway to have this and a more current version XP or 2003
on the same machine?  Please advise.

There are people running 4 versions of Access on the same machine.

Just be sure to install to different directories, and you're less likely to
have problems if you install in order.

There is also some information at

Although these refer to 97 with 2000, the principles are the same.

Hi you two

Same here.  I have Access 2000 and 2003 going
Originally, 2000 was installed in \MS... Office\ and I told 2003 to install in \MS... Office 2003\, and they both seem to be working ok.  There will be an issue* of which ver of Access will start when you try to open an .mdb
