    Access 2003 and 2007 coexisting

    I've just installed Office 2007 and am coming to terms with the
    drastically different menu structure!

    One problem I have is alternating between different version of Office
    applications and getting that bl...dy paint in the ...."wait while
    Office is configured " message.

    There is a registry fix for Word I found at
    http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com/2007/04/15/word-2007-and-word-2003-coexisting/


    So I'm wondering if there is an equivalent registry fix for access?

    There is no equivalent registry setting for HKEY_CURRENT_US ER\Software
    \Microsoft\Offi ce\11.0\Word\Op tions
    on my pc, can I just create one?

    thanks

    Grant

      Not that I'm aware of. Office 2007 SP1 shortens that wait substantially.

          I was going to suggest the same as Tony. SP1 mentioned the wait time was
          decreased when switching between versions.

          Fortunately, I rarely use access 97 now, and only in support of old versions
          of my software.

          Good luck!

              On my system it went from one minute to 15 seconds IIRC.

              I only noticed this betweeen A2003 and A2007. I haven't installed A97 on my systems
              these last few years. Just the A97 help.
