Actually, I decided to right click the file & choose "open with." It offers me "Microsoft Access" and "Microsoft Office Access." When choosing the latter, I was able to open the file like before. Tongue
 
Thanks for the help!

Then why do my forums still work? Also, I get the same message when I try to open wwForum.mdb. This file can't be corrupted because it's the fresh one that comes with the version 8 download.]]> Wed, 19 Apr 2006 23:33:30 +0000 https://forums.webwiz.net/unrecognized-database_topic19410_post104957.html#104957 <![CDATA[Unrecognized database : This is the big problem with Access.As...]]> https://forums.webwiz.net/unrecognized-database_topic19410_post104859.html#104859 Author: WebWiz-Bruce

This is the big problem with Access.

As Access is a flat office file it's not really up to coping with the amount of read and writes required by forum software, so often becomes corrupted in these circumstances.

The error means your Access database has become corrupted.

When opening my Access database (on my computer), it says "Unrecognized database format."  I used to be able to open my database before upgrading to version 8. Does anyone know why I can't anymore? Thanks!]]> Wed, 19 Apr 2006 00:19:21 +0000 https://forums.webwiz.net/unrecognized-database_topic19410_post104820.html#104820
