Hi Steve, the application I was talking about is actually the programming tool for Mitel phone systems. It includes the Access DB engine redistributable and they have both 32 and 64 bit versions of the programming tool.
The issues that I have had are they it wont install the 64 bit version of the tool on a 64 bit computer IF there is a 32 bit version of Office on those machines. Its just really frustrating the way different software product conflict with one thing or another.
A couple of years ago I was developing a digital signage application and was using Quicktime to play MOV files. Apple released an updated version of Quicktime with one of the iTunes updates and it broke my application, there were problems with the aspect ratio of the image. I downgraded Quicktime and my app was fine, but then iTunes refused to work despite the fact that I never used any of the features that needed QT as I only ever used it for loading songs onto my iPod.
