Using later version of microsoft access

G

Guy

Hi,

I've got access 2000 on my computer. When I go to open a database someone
sent me I get an error message :

this database is in an unrecognized format. The database may have been
created with a later version of microsoft access.

Is there any way I can open and use this file (short of upgrading to later
version of access)?

If you do not have Access 2002 or 2003, ask the person to save it in Access
2000 format for you.
