Hi NAME,

I wanted to inform you that I have replied to your thread in the Office
Setup Newsgroup titled: NEWSGROUPSUBJECT with IssueID: ISSUEID.

Basically you are not very restricted with your installation of Access. I
believe the only thing is taht The Runtime and the full product will
install Access.exe to the same location. therefore you can only have either
the full or runtime edition of each version.

Example:

You could have the following installed on the same PC at the same time.

Access 97 Runtime C:\MSOffice\Office
Access 2000 Full Version C:\Program FIles\Microsoft Office\Office
Access 2002 (XP) Runtime C:\Program FIles\Microsoft Office\Office10
Access 2003 Full Version C:\Program FIles\Microsoft Office\Office11

Could you run all versions simultaneously? Yes Of course the last version
installed will be used when you open a file file double-clicking it. (File
association thing)
Is this redundant? Yes.

I can't really think of any reason for this.

BTW: If you have the Full version installed, you do not need the runtime
version.
