    Splitting and Deploying Non-Networked Databases

    I’ve read most of the posts on splitting and deploying Access applications but most of them appear to concentrate on networked backend databases. However, my case is slightly different and I would like somebody to confirm that I’m taking the best course of action to achieve my goals. I’m...

    Microsoft Office Access 2003 Developer Extensions

    I was confused but the product that you need today is: Visual Studio Tools for Office 2005 - Microsoft Part Number U74-00171 This is the way that MS has chosen to package it. :eek:

    Microsoft Office Access 2003 Developer Extensions

    Pat Hartman, I was doing a bit of reasearch on Google yesterday for Visual Studio Tools for Office 2005 part number U74-00171 but the best price I could find was $662.76. If you have a URL to a reliable source in the US that can offer a lower price than this, I would very much appreciate the...

    Microsoft Office Access 2003 Developer Extensions

    Pat Hartman, I don't think that anybody was in doubt about the meaning of the word compile that I had used, it was as WindSailor has said and as I had mentioned earlier in my responses to other questions. The whole issue has arisen because of the way that MS has decided to bundle the Access...

    Microsoft Office Access 2003 Developer Extensions

    Also.... I suppose the other alternative is to find somebody with the Access Developers Toolkit who would be prepared to compile the application for me and supply me with the deployable application - not sure if there is anything in the licensing agreement that would prevent them from doing this.

    Microsoft Office Access 2003 Developer Extensions

    KeithG - I'm not looking for a free ride necessarily, just a PC product that is reasonably priced - In my opinion, no PC software is worth £600 given the numbers that are likely to be sold. It's a daft world when one company sells it web site development software for over £300 when I can buy...

    Microsoft Office Access 2003 Developer Extensions

    Thanks for the information which confirms what the Microsoft people told me here in the UK. The major problems are that lack of availability of the 2003 version and the extremely high cost of the 2005 Tools package to get just the Access Developers Toolkit --- Over £600.00 here in the UK :eek...

    Microsoft Office Access 2003 Developer Extensions

    I'm getting absolutely nowhere with this. If you do a search on Google for Visual Studio® 2005 Tools for the Microsoft Office System you'll see the range of confusing links and costs for this product. Also, you can download a copy at...

    Microsoft Office Access 2003 Developer Extensions

    Bosch, I think our last posts crossed, sorry about that. I am listening to you and taking your advice, I'm just getting totally frustrated by the total lack of information that is on the MS website, some of which now appears to relate to previous releases of the Tools. Can you tell me what...

    ghudson, The link you gave seems to suggest that Microsoft® Office Access 2003 is a resource for Microsoft® Visual Studio® Tools for the Microsoft® Office System version 2003 but I cannot find anything in my Access 2003. Another information sheet I've seen suggests that when it is installed it...
