[QUOTE="vansmith, post: 1322637, member: 71075"] Admin note - I removed your email address. You don't want to post that publicly - spammers might make use of it. Boot Camp install Windows to your hard drive while Parallels "virtualizes" it. Virtualizing an operating system installs Windows to a file (or collection of files) and you run Windows in a program. If you do this, you end up running Windows and OS X at the same time. If you choose Boot Camp, Windows is installed to the hard drive like it would be on a non-Mac. If you go this route, you'd have to reboot your machine to switch between the two. Here's what I mean by running an OS in a window if you virtualize it: [ATTACH=FULL]16161[/ATTACH] As you can see, I'm running OS X and another OS at the same time (in this case, it's Linux). If you only need Access, a VM (virtual machine) is likely more than sufficient. And, to address your first question, you would install Access like you would any other Windows program. [/QUOTE]
Verification
How many occurrences of a n-u-m-b-e-r between "d" and "f" in this example...(sdgs6ngklu3gd#f9%)?
