    Changing from access 2003 to 2007

    Hi
    there is an application which I have built on access 2003, but since I am facing lots of problem in finding the developer extension for deploying the application to the users, I want to change the access 2003 to 2007, so that I can freely download the developer extension from MS online. Will there be any problem in running the application on 2007, which is designed on 2003?

    Thanks
    Ash

    Once you open your Access 2003 file in Access 2007 file, there will shop up an reminder (like in Mozilla or IE when they warn you about blocking some kind of content, but say in Access somewhere in the middle of your workspace in the file, and the toolbars above)
    Anyway, you can't really miss that reminder bar, it says that "Some content in the files been blocked and you need to enable them by pressing on that pop-up bar. It then opens a little window, where you pick "ENABLE". Once you do that, it restarts and everything should start working.


    If this doesn't help, try another way of CONVERTING the 2003 to 2007 file, here is a link:
