Converting Web DB to Desktop DB

[sydaisy12]

Hi, Everyone!
I'm trying to convert the Contact WEB DB to Desktop Version. I have tried to import all the tables from the WEB DB to a new DB. However, there are only 2 tables that are available. Other forms / report .... cannot be imported. I have attached the file. Thanks in advanced.

Hi,

You need to save the web objects (other than tables) as client objects. That's why you only see the tables listed in the import dialog. Web tables can be imported just fine and will become client tables.

I don't see any attached database to your post here? Did it not come through?
Do you have data in this app?

Hi,

Can you be more specific on where you are seeing this issue?
What exact set of steps leads you to hitting this error?

I've converted a copy of the 2010 Contacts web database into a client desktop database and so far I haven't seen this error.

Can you tell me what actions are you taking here?

Thanks,
