Converting Access 2000 to Access 97

[Dennis]

When converting an Access 2000 db on XP, tables only, to Access 97 format, I get "Invalid Field Data Type" message and the DB is not converted. Where can I find a list of Field Data Types that are new to Access 2000? Thanks

Go to the Access help file and search on "What's New". It should give you
listings of new items. If you go to the Contents tab, there is probably a
listing there for the What's New.

Actually Wayne there was no information in the documentation I could find but after trial and error, it was the decimal field in 2000 or 2002 that would not convert to Access 97. Thanks
