    Exclamation Access 2007 to Access 97


    I need to convert an Access 2007 database to an Access 97 document. Is it possible or I'll need to develop all again in 97? :/

    Thanks,

    I believe that 2007 will only convert back to 2000. You could do that and then use a copy of 2000 to convert that back to 97.

    I thought about that, but it's not practical. I'll need to install Access 2000 and then 97.. =/ Are there any other possible solutions? Maybe a program to convert it..

    I don't know of such a utility offhand. My thought was that you could just have someone with 2000 convert it. You could even post it here and one of us will convert it.

    I got an error trying to convert it; I was hoping someone else might have better luck.
