Hi Mike,

the only way I can think of and I have not tried it is, in Access 2003 save
the database as Access 2000 (it may already be in that format), then in
Access 2000 save the database in a previous version.

Hope it helps.

Mike -

In theory this should be done via <TOOLS> <DATABASE UTILITIES> <CONVERT
DATABASE> - - - Some advance features may not convert back. Hope this helps.

Click to expand...

A2003 can convert a database to A97 format directly.
