Access 2007 & Office 2002 installation

[Guest]

I am planning on a new database development project
in which I was going to use Access 2007. However
all my systems currently, have Office 2002 along
with Access 2002.

Can both Access 2007 and 2002 be installed on my
system for development? If not, can I at least
have Access 2007 and Word/Excel 2002 on my development
system?

TIA

I installed both for a while on a machine at work and everytime you open
the other version you have to wait for the install (like new user) on the
other machine. Also had some problems making older datafiles I had updated
run properly on other user computers. Below is some other hints.

When you install Access 2007, be sure you install the Office 2007 SP1
download. It will dramatically reduce the time wait when moving from one
version to the other.

Your welcome, I was lucky afterwards as the SMS pushed 2007 to everyone on
our net so for me those issues are gone, except when I convert some of my
old files but this too shall pass.
