install Access 2007

I'm wondering what problems there may be in going from Access 2000 to Access
2007. We are ready to install update and I was wondering can I have both
2000 and 2007 on my computer? I think I read that one should update to 2003
first then update to 2007. What's the consensus on these thoughts?
Thanks

Since Access 2000 tended to be buggy during development, I think you should
update that to Access 2003 regardless. If you install Office/Access to
separate directories, you can maintain both versions on the same machine. I
maintain 3 versions on 1 of my machines (97, 2003, 2007) Make sure that ALL
service packs and hotfixes are installed, and install each version in
version order.
