Tiff format problems with Access 2007

[Arpine]

We have some databases created in Access 2000 with .tif files embedded to the
forms and reports. And we are planning to migrate to Access 2007. We open
databases created in Access 2000 with Access 2007 and we get the following
error massage:

2114 <database name> doesn't support of the file
'I:\Tmimage\2005\20051028.tif,'
or file is too large. Try converting the file to BMP format.

Is Access 2007 supports tif format or is there any solution for this problem?

The TIFF graphics filter was withdrawn in Office 2003, so many users with tiff images found that their applications stopped working after upgrading. Furthermore, the Office Converter pack (which contains the graphics filters) was found to contain a bug which could potentially pose a security threat, so the XP version (which includes the TIFF filter) was withdrawn from Microsoft downloads and replaced with the 2003 version (which does not include TIFF support). Consequently, downloading and installing the up-to-date converter pack will likely break applications that rely on the TIFF Graphics Filter.

Armen.
