Access 2000 to Access 97

[Deb Koplen]

I have a small database in Access 2000 that consists only
of tables. I am trying to convert it to Access 97. Every
time i go to Tools, database utilities, convert database
to a prior Access databaswe version, I get "invalid field
data type". What do I need to look for or do?

Hi Deb,

Probably you have used Number(Decimal) fields, which don't exist in
Access 97. Change them to Number(Double) or Currency and things should
work OK.
