Hello,
To convert a database, ensure the following:
* You must join the workgroup(security file or mdw or mda file) that
defines the user accounts used to
access the database. You need to use the Workgroup
Administrator (Wrkgadm.exe) tool (should be located
in your PC) to join to your workgroup file.
* Your user account must have Open/Run and Open Exclusive permissions for
the database object.
* Your user account must have Modify Design or Administer permissions for
all the tables in the database, or it must be the owner
of all tables in the database.
* Your user account must have Read Design permission for all objects in
the database.
* Request that other users close the database.
Once above conditions are met, you can double click an Access 97 file in
Access 2000 to convert.
