Buying Office 97 Developer Edition - pros and cons

Hello,

I am in a bit of a quandary about buying ODE 97.

What are the major drawbacks or maybe merits as compared to recent Office
versions (especially O2k)

Would would be your advice on it?

TIA,

Pawel

Buy ODE97 if you are developing in 97. I would bypass O2K and get the
AXP edition. You get the developers edition for the major reason of
having the ability to distribute run-times. AXP can use A2K tables/mdbs
and is the last version that can run on Win98/WinNT and is the most recent.

Is there any reason, other than the distributable Access runtime, to use Office XP developer? I tried installing it on my system, but apparently I need to install/update a bunch of components - "Windows Component Update" or something... not sure I want to do this. What can I do with the Developer edition that I can't do with the Professional edition? I found this on the net, but it sounds like marketing hype:
