Hi, if I creae an appliction in A2003 (format A2000) will I be able to run it
under MS Access runtime for A2000?
 
Yes, it should work fine.

I had a client that started dev using access 2000 and using runtime to
deploy to their users. When I took over, I used access 2003 to continue the
development and the run-time deployment continued to work fine.

Perhaps others may have had other experiences, but for me it worked
beautifully.

If you have a very complex application with 1000's of forms, you
may find that it works OK in 2003 and crashes in 2000.

Just because 2000 crashes more.

Apart from that you should be ok.

Yes, I do that all the time. However you must ensure that you don't
use any A2002/A2003 specific features. Now there aren't many but
there are enough.

If you start up A2000 and make an MDE out of the A2000 format MDB you
can be assured it's clean.
