Unfortunately, Camcorder doesn't work with recent versions of Windows. Some
problem with a missing video codec, whatever that means.

Hi Jan,

Just a suggestion from left field.
Do you or your office still have a copy of Office 97 Professional Edition?
On that CD is a program called Microsoft Camcorder.
In essence it is a utility that "records" what you are doing on the
screen.
You press start to record and then stop to finish.
You can then compress and covert the .avi output file to an .exe file.
The file could still be pretty big if you record for a very long time, but
burning it onto a CD
should be no problem.
You could break up certain aspects of the project into smaller chunks.

I have a personal restaurant database I have been working on for a couple
of years and for Version
1.0 ALL of my Help files were created with this utility. For example, to
display posting an invoice
I simply recorded an example. All of the Help topics were launched from a
"Help Form." It worked
very well, but became too much maintenance as the project became MUCH
bigger.

Since these are .exe files, virtually any computer should be able to open
the files whether or not
they have any Access/Office version. I'm not sure if this utility came
bundled with later Office
versions. I know you can also purchase programs like these as well.

Just a thought.

Hi All - Access 2002 XP - Win ME

Is there an Viewer for Access like the one for Word? I need to show a
sample
of an Access app. on a machine that does not have Access loaded.

If so, I would truly appreciate a reference or a link where I can
downloaded
it. I've been searching for one on the Internet for the past hour or so,
but, haven't turned up any information for one yet. Just thought I'd see
if
one was available before I went any further. :-)

Best regards.

Jan
