Convert system in Access 2003 to Access 2007



Issue



Sir, actually in my practical place, my manager have giving me a complete system that works in access 2003, but then if i want to open in access 2007, it does not work completely. Therefore, my task is to make it work, can you help me by giving a complete guide on how to change a system or database in access 2003 to access 2007.thank you and i really appreciate for your look up.

Solution


I had the same problem recently, I done a program in Access 2003 as a project, but then had to make it work in Access 2007 which I thought to be a dead end..

But there is a simple way on making it work. Once you open your Access 2003 file in Access 2007 file, there will shop up an reminder (like in Mozilla or IE when they warn you about blocking some kind of content, but say in Access somewhere in the middle of your workspace in the file, and the toolbars above)
Anyway, you can't really miss that reminder bar, it says that "Some content in the files been blocked and you need to enable them by pressing on that pop-up bar. It then opens a little window, where you pick "ENABLE". Once you do that, it restarts and everything should start working.

If this doesn't help, try another way of CONVERTING the 2003 to 2007 file, here is a link:

It's all under the "Convert an Access 2000 or Access 2002 - 2003 database"
