Removing the Conversion Pop-UP

[George Gates]

I have a database in Access 2000 that is shared with other
users. The other user have upgraded to 2002 and/or XP.
How can I block/disable the Pop-up that ask "Do you want
to convert to the latest version" Please Help. If you
want to email me directly my email is (e-mail address removed).

This would help if I had admin rights to the other
machines, but I don't. Is there any settings within
Access 2000 that I could do this.

Hi, George.

You can't change this setting from within Access, no matter what version you
are using. The Windows Registry needs to be altered, so someone with
Windows Administrator permissions needs to make this change in the Registry
for every computer that you want to suppress the conversion dialog window
for.

HTH.
