Hi everyone, could you please give me any possible links to a document/s (or anything) that shows or discusses or lists the basic (or detailed) differences of Access 2000 and Access 2002 (sp2).

My attempt to answer this question was simply to go through some existing databases from others, and i discovered changes on the VB code as for special functions (dates, chars) e.t.c but it would be a lot quicker for me to find a document that gives me some basic feedback rather than trying to produce all possible incompatibilities by my self.

The reason i need this is for an evaluation document for a company mainly need to focus on the following subjects:

1. What impact is there on Win 2000 clients trying to read and write to the DB when the DB is upgraded to Win XP?

2. What impact is there on Win XP clients trying to read and write to the DB when the DB is running at Win 2000?

3. What is the best deployment method that minimises downtime and loss of functionality on the database to the users? Should all the clients be migrated at one time or should it be completed gradually. If the latter is chosen, what impact is there on the user?


I need to make the document addressing more than the above. So as said some documentation addressing incompatibilities will do and then i can answer the above three questions plus more if i know what are the incompatibilities...


P.S Do not stick with those 3 questions. These are to be answered on a later stage. What i need for now is something addressing changes between access 2000 and XP as well as VBA 6.0 to VBA 6.3.
Thanks for reading this.
Please help
