Installing the Extras 2007 add-in.

LNC Rename add-in.
Using the Extras 2007 Add-in ..........................................................................................
After installing the Extras 2007.accda add-in, you can run its three menu add-ins from the Add-Ins
menu, which is found in the Database Tools group on the Database Tools Ribbon.
If you are creating an add-in that can be used in several versions of Access (it doesn’t
need any special new features of Access 2007, and doesn’t create menus or toolbars
that will only work in older versions), create the add-in in an older format, so it can run in both the
older version(s) and Access 2007. The LNC Rename.mda add-in will run in any version of Access from
Access 2000 through Access 2007, at least if you are running on Windows XP.
