Eligibility Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:~1. All patients must sign an informed consent consistent with ICH-GCP guidelines prior to participation in the trial, which includes medication washout and restrictions~2. All patients must have a diagnosis of COPD and must meet the following spirometric criteria:~   Patients must have relatively stable airway obstruction with a post-bronchodilator FEV1 \< 80% of predicted normal and a post-bronchodilator FEV1 / FVC \< 70% at Visit 1~3. Male or female patients, 40 years of age or older~4. Patients must be current or ex-smokers with a smoking history of more than 10 pack years~5. Patients must be able to perform technically acceptable pulmonary function tests~6. Patients must be able to inhale medication in a competent manner from the Respimat inhaler and from a metered dose inhaler (MDI).~Exclusion Criteria:~1. Patients with a significant disease other than COPD.~2. Patients with clinically relevant abnormal baseline haematology, blood chemistry, or urinalysis; all patients with an SGOT \> x2 ULN, SGPT \> x2 ULN, bilirubin \> x2 ULN or creatinine \> x2 ULN will be excluded regardless of clinical condition.~3. Patients with a history of asthma. For patients with allergic rhinitis or atopy, source documentation is required to verify that the patient does not have asthma. If a patient has a total blood eosinophil count more than 600/mm3, source documentation is required to verify that the increased eosinophil count is related to a non-asthmatic condition.~4. Patients with any respiratory infection or COPD exacerbation in the 6 weeks prior to the Screening Visit (Visit 1) or during the baseline period.~5. Patients with any of the following conditions: a diagnosis of thyrotoxicosis; a diagnosis of paroxysmal tachycardia (\>100 beats per minute)~6. Patients with any of the following conditions: a history of myocardial infarction within 1 year of screening visit (Visit 1); unstable or life-threatening cardiac arrhythmia; have been hospitalized for heart failure within the past year; known active tuberculosis; a malignancy for which patient has undergone resection, radiation therapy or chemotherapy within last five years (patients with treated basal cell carcinoma are allowed); a history of life-threatening pulmonary obstruction; a history of cystic fibrosis; clinically evident bronchiectasis; a history of significant alcohol or drug abuse~7. Patients who have undergone thoracotomy with pulmonary resection~8. Patients being treated with any of the following concomitant medications: oral beta2-adrenergics; oral corticosteroid medication at unstable doses (i.e., less than six weeks on a stable dose) or at doses in excess of the equivalent of 10 mg of prednisone per day or 20 mg every other day.~9. Patients who regularly use daytime oxygen therapy for more than one hour per day.~10. Patients who have completed a pulmonary rehabilitation program in the six weeks prior to the Screening Visit (Visit 1) or patients who are currently in a pulmonary rehabilitation program~11. Patients who have taken an investigational drug within one month or six half lives (whichever is greater) prior to Screening Visit~12. Patients with known hypersensitivity to beta-adrenergics drugs, BAC, EDTA or any other component of the Respimat inhalation solution delivery system~13. Pregnant or nursing women~14. Women of childbearing potential not using two effective methods of birth control (one barrier, one non-barrier). Female patients will be considered to be of childbearing potential unless surgically sterilised by hysterectomy or bilateral tubal ligation, or post-menopausal for at least two years~15. Patients who have previously been randomized in this study or are currently participating in another study~16. Patients who are unable to comply with pulmonary medication restrictions prior to randomization
