Using Summit on
Windows Vista and Office 2007
This document was last updated 21 December 2007.
While we recommend that users continue to use the Office 2003 versions of our software with Office 2003 Professional we recognise that many users can now only purchase computers with Windows Vista and Office 2007. While Access 2007 can open existing Access 2000, Access 2002 and Access 2003 versions of our software, our clients have encountered a number of issues and problems.
To date, the main issues/problems our clients have had with using the current
versions of our software in the Windows Vista/Office 2007 environment are:
1. Which version of current software should be installed?
2. Multiple security warnings are displayed whenever the software is opened
3. The Summit menus at the top of the screen are not displayed
4. The on-line help cannot be accessed
5. Summit products cannot e-mail in conjunction with Outlook 2007
6. Dynamically generated report headings and fields did not display correctly
If you are using Summit in the Windows Vista/Office 2007 environment please download the document below, which explains the steps needed to deal with each of
these issues.
