Hi
I have an Access 2000 database that is used by multiple users. The DB is
split with the backend on a server.
I have 1 user who wants to use the DB but they have Office XP (Access 2002)
installed.
I feared that the 2000 users may have trouble using the backend if a 2002
user accessed it ( I recall having these issues with 97 and 2000).
I tested this theory on a copy of the backend and 2002 seems to be able to
use the 2000 backend and preserve 2000's ability to access it thereafter.
My problem is that I can get the mdb version of my Access 2000 front end to
work on the 2002 PC but the mde version created in 2000 will not work.
There is a message about a function or VBA code that Access can't find .
This is then followed by a message to the effect that the mde is corrupted.
I was not able to create an mde on the 2002 PC without upgrading the
database to 2002 format. I assume this would mean the back end too - i don't
want this.
the application uses Word and Excel libraries too. The list of References
for the 2000 version is shown below
ListReferences
VBA: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\VBA\VBA6\VBE6.DLL
Access: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\MSACC9.OLB
Word: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\MSWORD9.OLB
MSACAL: C:\WINNT\system32\MSCAL.OCX
stdole: C:\WINNT\System32\stdole2.tlb
DAO: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\DAO\dao360.dll
VBIDE: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft
Shared\VBA\VBA6\VBE6EXT.OLB
Office: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\MSO9.DLL
vsFlexLib: C:\WINNT\System32\VSFLEX3.OCX
Does anyone know what I can do to create an mde version for the 2002 pc that
won't make the backend unusable for the 2000 users?
Any advice gratefully accepted.
