Can not open Access 2002 database in Access 2000

[Kim]

I have a client who has Access 2002 on one computer and Access 2000 on
another computer. He created a database in Access 2002, but when he tries to
open it in Access 2000, he gets a message that the database is in an
unrecognized format. Is there a way to open the database created in Access
2002 on the computer that contains Access 2000? Possibly a compatibility
pack such as the one created for Office 2007? Thanks.

Access 2000 can't open future versions of db files. Your client needs to
convert the Access 2002 database format to Access 2000 database format so
both pcs can open the file. Or upgrade Access 2000 on the one pc to a later
version of Access.

Chris,

Thanks for the response. I don't work with Access, so can you tell me where
I can find instructions on converting the Access 2002 database format to
Access 2000 database format? Thanks.
