[Kerr1992]

Hi,

I'm needing to use Microsoft access out with college but I can't afford 500 notes for the 2010 version.

Is there anywhere i can get 2003 or 2007 free or cheap?

Any help will be much appreciated

Thanks
Craig

Had a look at open office as directed but just need to know if it has the same features as Microsoft access? ... It doesn't say

That office package is tempting but will have to wait till Thursday

It doesn't have a lot of the features. If you need Access then unfortunatly you need to buy it.

The only way to know for sure would be to download and install it, and unless you have a usage cap on your broadband there's really no reason not to give a go

I downloaded it but for some reason when trying to open my database it turned into a word document :O ... Stupid computer!

Guess ill have to use overdraft

Thanks anyways

Blue edition mate Its basically the same version that comes with certain computers, licensed to OEM's like Dell and Acer.

I dont condone pirating software, but if you look on certain sites, you will find "Microsoft Office 2007 Blue Edition"
