MS Access from Ubuntu

2009-11-11 Thread David Bowskill
Hello All

I wish to run MS Access 2003 from within Ubuntu.
I own registered copies of the full MS Office 2003 suite and also XP Pro.
What is the best and easiest way to achieve this  ?
Advice and experience greatly appreciated.

Thanks in anticipation

David Bowskill

Hi
I used to use virtual box to do this, which is ubuntus feeds (run
aptitude or synaptic and search for virtualbox).  Although now if I was
to do this, i'd just use the kvm virtualisation thats 'built' into linux
by default.  vmware is also a viable option I used to use in the past,
and still do on my mac.

Let us know how you go or if you need a hand packing this further.

virtualbox is easy. KVM is built in BUT will only work if cpu has
Virtualization  support. ( Intel VT and  AMD-V). So i would recommend
virtualbox.
