I'm trying to take a database from MS database (Works 7.0) into Access 2002. I've done this before by saving it as a DBase IV file and then opening it as such into access. However, this time I need the EQUATIONS to transfer as well, not just the values. I care little about the form view, or even the values themselves, but need the equations to transfer. Please advise. Thanks. :confused:

Relational databases do not use the concept of cells so there would be no way to import the calculations themselves. You will need to analyze the existing application and rebuild it. Many of the calculations can be reproduced in queries. Others will need to be placed in forms or reports.
