Question Editing an mdb file with Access 2010

[BarbASCII]

Hi Everyone

Does anyone know of any issues with using Access 2010 to edit an mdb file, please. I know there are backward incompatibilty issues with 2007 and 2010, but these are both accdb formats. Thanks

mdb is the format for earlier versions of Access (97, 2000, 2002, 2003). If you open the mdb and edit it to include any features not available in earlier versions and try to save the database as mdb it will give a message (to the best of my knowledge). If you choose to save the edited database in accdb format, it will save --but you will not be able to open the accdb database with a pre-2007 version of Access.

Not sure if that's exactly what you asked.
