opening form created in office 365 in earlier versions of Access

[Frizz]

Newbie here. Be gentle please.



Is there a way to open a form created in the Office 365 version of Access in an earlier version?

Generally it is recommended to develop at the lowest version.
I can open later dbs with my 2007 as long as they do not use any new features. Often for a db I am told I need 14 etc to access the db. 2007 is 12.

Agree with previous comments.
As long as you don't use new datatypes or modern charts, ACCDB databases created in 365 will normally open without issues in all versions back to 2010. Problems can occur in version 2007.
However, you may need to update any version specific reference libraries e.g. Excel

Another caveat is that ACCDE files created in 365 will almost certainly NOT work in earlier version. Create ACCDE files in the oldest version in use by your clients/customers.
