What to purchase?
Is there a Microsoft Office Developer Edition for Microsoft Access only, or
does the Office XP Developer Edition cover all of the Microsoft Office applications? Also, will the developer edition allow me to create/distribute a CD with a runtime version of MS Access? -- Thanks. EdS |

There's only the Office XP Developer Edition, which includes the Access
run-time (to be honest, I don't think it really has much for other Office applications!) Yes, it'll let you distribute a CD with the run-time version. Hopefully you already have the Office XP Developer Edition, though, as Microsoft no longer sells it. -- Doug Steele, Microsoft Access MVP http://I.Am/DougSteele (No private e-mails, please) "EdS" wrote in message ...

Pardon me for eavesdropping on this questionaire, but if they no longer have
an XP Developer's Edition.... what has Microsoft invented to replace it? "Douglas J.

I do not have the developer edition. I currently have Office XP Pro 2003.
Where does that leave me as to a purchase to accomplish what I want to do? Also, if I must purchase something exclusive to Office 2003, will the distribution CD's be usable to a pc which has an earlier version? "Douglas J.

Office 2003 uses Visual Studio Tools for Office (VSTO), which includes the
Access Developer Extensions (ADE). http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/of...ficetools.aspx http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/ho...s/default.aspx I'm not quite sure what your questions about "usable to a pc which has an earlier version" means. If you're asking about previous versions of Office, that's somewhat irrelevant, since you'll be distributing the runtime. If your question is related to Windows, Access 2003 only works with Windows 2000 (with SP3 installed) and Windows XP. -- Doug Steele, Microsoft Access MVP http://I.Am/DougSteele (No private e-mails, please) "EdS" wrote in message ...

The reason they no longer sell the XP Developer's Edition is because they no longer sell Office XP. There is an equivalent tool for Office 2003 available, but it's part of Visual Studio something-or-other. -- I don't check the Email account attached to this message. Send instead to...

Hello again.. Based on what you told me, I have ordered the VSTO. Is there a
book that you could recommend which would be of help with the "Access Developer Extensions" ? "Douglas J.

I'm not aware of any, but that doesn't mean much (I don't pay that much
attention to what books are out there, I'm afraid) -- Doug Steele, Microsoft Access MVP http://I.Am/DougSteele (No private e-mails, please) "EdS" wrote in message ... Hello again..
