Making 98 work with Win Office 2000 runtimes of Access?
I'm about to put Win 98 on a machine I need to run a runtime for an Access
database (Access 2000). Its a long story, so don't confuse me... I am reliably informed that if I install Internet Explorer etc, version 5.5 and up on the system, it will then have all the vbs runtimes it might need to run anything legal, as it were, is this right?

Making 98 work with Win Office 2000 runtimes of Access?
Maybe yes, maybe no. I'd also get the VB Runtimes from here.
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...d-cdf2d29a79d5 Install Windows with minimal or no Options (use Custom installation), install the Runtimes, install IE 5.5, then install the app. Still, if you intend to allow this machine access to the internet, after installing everything I'd go to Windows Updates and get the Security Updates at least. You may need others, as well. As far as legality, I don't know how your Access app is set up. This app doesn't require Access to be installed first? -- Gary S.
