FWIW you can access data created by newer versions of MS Access by creating a new DB in your version and then "linking" to the individual tables in the newer MDB (not tried with 2003).

This is also a useful "trick" to remember with a partially corrupt DB when all else fails.

If it has been created with a newer version of Access (for example Xp or 2003) U need to open it with a more recent version and save it into a older format.

U have to ask -boRg- the Access version he has used. ]]> Sun, 28 Dec 2003 12:27:06 +0000 https://forums.webwiz.net/unable-to-open-access-db_topic8373_post43367.html#43367 <![CDATA[Unable to open access DB : michael wrote:You database...]]> https://forums.webwiz.net/unable-to-open-access-db_topic8373_post43349.html#43349 Author: REX.
