Hi guys,

This is a bit of a long winded PROBLEM so sorry in advance!!

I am running windows XP, version 2002, SP2.

I am currently taking my Microsoft user specialist exams and have recently bought the Office 2003 practice EXAM software. I currently have Office 2003 home edition and Office 2007 professional plus installed on my computer. However because no Microsoft access CAME with the 2003 package (which i didn't realize and didn't need at the time) i cannot RUN the Access practice exams.

I have a Microsoft office professional XP disk which has the Access 2003 program and I was just wondering if there was any way I could install it on my computer and use that to practice the Access exams. Whenever i choose to open the Access exams they run the simulation using 2007 which isn't a lot of use to me for a 2003 exam.

My apologies if these details are a bit confusing but any help would be most appreciated.Umm, let's get our facts and terminology straight here. Quote from: Lorraine on July 07, 2008, 03:48:51 PM

No, Office XP Professional would have Access XP, not Access 2003.

So, are you asking whether you can install Access XP only from your Microsoft office professional XP disk?
