Question Access 2010 and 2007 (1 Viewer)

[Tallica]

So, I used acess 2007 to download the the Project Management Template Database. I then open the database in access 2010 and modified it quite a bit to meet my specific needs. I have access setup to save in 2007 format. However, I now cannot open the databse on a 2007 machine. It says I have an unrecognized database format.

Any Ideas?


TIA Rob

You may not receive a prompt reply to an access 2010 issue because it is likely that many people here do not yet have this version of access.

There are several things you could try, create another test database in access 2010 just have a couple of empty forms in it, save it in 2007 version, now try and open it in 2007 was this successful?

When you were modifying your database in access 2010, is it possible that you added some features that are only available in access 2010? I don’t know, I’m guessing, but this could be a reason why it won’t work.

If you use ANYTHING that is a feature in Access 2010 that is not in 2007 you will get that error. It would appear that you have done just that.
