Access 2.0 to Access XP?

[Lacquer]

Hello,

My customer has an Access 2.0 database which they would like to upgrade to
Access XP. Can I just use decompile/recompile/compact? Is it necessary to
take any other steps?

Thanks in advanc. Tracy

No you can't just do that.

Converting from A2.0 to any later version may involve a major exercise.

Beyond writing a book, which you can buy, tell us what specifically is your
problem?

If you don't know A2.0, ie the "from" AND the "to", then you are not qualified
to convert it, is my impression.

Having said that, conversions are not too difficult if you just try it and
fix-up resulting errors. If you can't fix-up resulting errors, then you should
"consider your position".
