[bcab] Re: Microsoft Access

Hi,

Access used to only be available in the small business and professional 
editions of Office.  When I got my new machine, I got an OEM copy of Office 
2007 small business, but this did not come with Access, the only way of getting 
it was to upgrade to the Professional edition of Office 2007, which I managed 
to do using the software assurance pack I have access to.

I think Carina works for a local council, it may be worth asking them if they 
do any staff purchase options as Microsoft do offer this as part of the 
software benefit that most of them sign up to.

It used to be possible to buy these programs as single packages, not sure 
whether that is possible now; I couldn't see any reference to this under my 
agreement.

Thanks.
Andrew.

Isn't there an option in the add/remove programs in control panel to repair or 
install other components in the office suite?  It seems to ring a bell with me 
from yonks ago.

Hi Carina,

Surprising you don't have Access.  Wherever you got your office application 
should be able to give you access too - they come on the same CD in every 
version of microsoft office I have come accross - that means pretty much every 
version except for 2007.  Failing that, I'm reasonably sure that open office 
provides a database program that integrates with the other microsoft software.

Hi there,

Does anyone know where I can purchase Microsoft Access as a single application 
form?  I have all of the other applications that I need on my PC, but not 
Access.  Any ideas much appreciated, and I hope that everyone has had a nice 
Christmas.

Many thanks.

Karina
