Compliments for how your software and the website looks.

Thanks yea I didn't want to pay that much either, but in the end I caved. My software goes to the public so I can't have it do weird things like configuration screens (if by chance they use earlier versions of Access). Albert Kallal has a nice article on installation using some of the standard tools. I don't have the url right now, sure you could find it. -- Mark Andrews RPT Software http://www.rptsoftware.com http://www.donationmanagementsoftware.com "Lars Brownies" <Lars(a)Browniew.com> wrote in message news:hrqvrq$21np$1(a)textnews.wanadoo.nl... > $650 USD and $450 USD, for pro and light respectively, is indeed a bit too > pricey for me at the moment. > > Compliments for how your software and the website looks. > > Lars > > > "Mark Andrews" <mandrews___NOSPAM___(a)rptsoftware.com> schreef in bericht > news:#D1l4c96KHA.5112(a)TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl... >> Once you double click on an Access2007 database and it opens in Access >> 2007 runtime the next time it will not show the configuration screen >> (unless something from Office 2003 was used).
