[QUOTE="Henrymac, post: 1320751, member: 221519"] Hi, I read the thread by cwa107 titled: Running Windows on a Mac: A Switcher's Guide, which was very helpful I have an iMac OS X, first time mac user. I need microsoft access and STATA. I currently have STATA installed on my iMac If I buy bootcamp (BC) or parallel, would I buy and install access on this system? i.e. do I open a "BC or parallels" window, and download access that way? After I install access, I need to transfer the data to STATA 12 (a statistical analysis software that is currently loaded on my iMac, not sure how many out there are familiar with this) I am a physician and this is the program that will run the actual stats. STATA runs on both Mac and PC. Would this work? Or would I need to install STATA on "BC or Parallels" (right now only on my iMac) I guess the overall question is, do people recommend Boot Camp or Parallels for my particular situation, and, will it work. I understand this may be difficult as I don't know how many mac users utilize access and STATA. Thank you for any advice, greatly appreciated. Henry [email]henrydwelch@gmail.com[/email] [/QUOTE]
