    Exclamation No compatibility forms of Acces 2010 and 2007


    I have the following question and at the same time request. I created in Access 2010 datebase with forms and reports that contain graphic characters from clipart MS Office, images, etc. I tried to open this database in Access 2007 and all forms, reports lost their appearance, moreover - and first of all - there is no graphics or pictures. Is there any solution to have the same database in 2010 and 2007 version of Access? PS. The same problem is in 2013 version). Please help! I thank you all in advance for suggestions to solve the problem!

    Usually best to create a db in the oldest software version that the db will be used in. I say 'usually' because some stuff doesn't carry forward from 2003 nicely.
    How to attach file: http://www.accessforums.net/showthread.php?t=70301 To provide db: copy, remove confidential data, run compact & repair, zip w/Windows Compression.

    As noted by J7 you've gone the incorrect chronological direction and there is no guarantee how or if things will work. Sometimes it won't even open in 07 when designed in a later version so keep that in mind that you have a little bit of luck in that not all is lost..... If you must work with 07 then you must do all design there going forward...

    The appearance may be dictated by a template inside 2010 and 07 does not have. There may be no fix for that. The images one would think should still be there though obviously they are not....you will need to simply reinstall them.

    Sorry not to be more helpful.
