Hello everyone!

I'm trying to find an answer to the following question (or 2).

Does an Access 2.0 runtime only environment exist? (You know, the one where you can't do anything with the database/app except for running it) Where would I find it?

And if it doesn't, what is the version of Access that the runtime only environment was introduced? 97? 2000?

Does anyone know?

Regards

You need the Office Developers Edition to install the runtime engine for Access. Access 2.0 did have an Office Developers Edition and your best bet would be to find it on Ebay. Good luck!

Any reason you do not want to purchase a newer version of the Office Developers Edition and convert your db to the newer version instead of using Access 2.0?
 
Thanks ghudson!

For budgetary reasons my client doesn't want to budge from Access 2.0 now. Money speaks louder than logical actions I guess, as I am pushing them to go to the newer version of Dev Edition, but I'm not the one making the decisions for the company. Oh well...

So is eBay the only place I'd be able to get it?
Microsoft doesn't support it and won't provide it anymore, is that how it goes?

Access2 was riddled with bugs, why not push the boat out and see if you can find 97Dev Ed
