Question : can you safely use Access 2003 and 2007 together

We have two versions of a database, 2003 and 2007.  Can I work on either on the same computer without messing up the other?

Answer : can you safely use Access 2003 and 2007 together

jrsitman,

You can install both, but if you switch back and forth between them you will be forced to endure the set-up routine multiple times.  (Excel, Word, and PowerPoint 2007 co-exist more gracefully with their 2003 alter-egos; of course, you can only have one version of Outlook at a time.)

You might be best served installing the lesser-used version into a VM.
