Default 2003 runtime and 2007 runtime on same PC

Hi all

I currently have about 100 users using a FE/BE (SQL backend) with 2003
runtime. Another department now want a db and I would like to develop in
2007 and have them used 2007 runtime. Each department will only use their db
but a couple of people (directors....) will need to be able to get into both.
Will there be the "application install" delay with runtime? Can a pc have
both runtime versions installed?

Thanks for the help.

Hi

Thank you. So do you think that it would be best to update everyone elses
machines to 2007 runtime or just the users who will need both?

After testing the existing application in the A2007 runtime, I would update
all machines to the A2007 runtime. Less variation is usually less problems.
Since you'll be developing in A2007, the VBA references will get updated to
A2007 the first time you edit the existing application.
