ACCESS2000/2 Conversion to ACCESS2003

[bubu678]

I am involved in a conversion of MSACCESS from 2000/2002 to 2003. Basically, and automated process would install Office 2003 (with Access) on user's machines. My question is once the database is opened, would there be a conversion prompt (ie do you wish to convert to 2003?)? In my tests I just opened a MS2000 db using MS2003 and there was no prompt. Looks like you can save in MS2003 format only at File Save.

Any comments would be appreciated.

Access 2003 runs ac2000 format files just fine. I do not believe there is any reason to convert to the 2002/3 format. At least I don't do it for my stuff.

you will receive a security level error the first time you open the db, so goto macros/security and set the level to low.
