Microsoft Access Reqd

Hi all I'm looking to get my hands on Microsoft Access. I know on the MS site you can download a free trial packaged up in Office Professional 2007. I dont really need the latest greatest version, even Access 2000 would do. I'm happy enough to buy this as long as it ain't too expensive Cheers

Access 2000 passed End of Life a while back...and as has Access XP.. earliest version pre 2007 would be Access 2003 and probably only SP2 and above..

Any reason you can use the trial of 2007???

I suppose I can - I just started the process of downloading and form filling. There seemed to be only an option if you lived in the US but maybe I was missing something - I'll give it another shot

Microsoft don't usually drop the price of their old programs, you'd be looking to buy it retail second hand off someone to stay legal (and ensure they uninstall it as well).
