2007 Packaging

[SteveF]

Probably me being dumb, but any help appreciated.

I have Access 2003 and that's where my DB has been developed. I've downloaded the 2007 Office Pro trial then the developer extensions and then Runtime.

I was expecting that the Package Wizard would walk me through the, well, packaging process. Trouble is, I can't find the Package Wizard. It is late, and I'm not the sharpest knife in the box, but is there some sort of trick to installing the developer extensions so that they can be found in Access 2007?

I might be corrected here, but I think you need A2K7 in order to package your db up.

I do have Access 2007, I also have the developer extensions and runtime.

See the screen shot for where to find the Developer options. Select Package Solution from the options and follow the bouncing ball.

I don't have the Developer option at the bottom of the menu...

Got it now, thanks for help.

Are you converting to 07 first before running the packaging wizard or can you package an 03 db and use the 07 runtime?

Thanks -

I'm converting to 2007 first. I have to say that I'm really liking Access 2007.
