Hello
We recently converted an Access 2 (!) database to 97. We would like to delete some oor the forms that were converted but Access won't let us. We are also having trouble importing data form Excel into tables which were converted. (They import to new tables just fine)
Any thoughts
Thank
Alison
 
First make a copy, then make another copy. Then open a code window and try
compiling the database. Fix any errors one by one. Forms that can't be fixed
are probably corrupt. If that's the case, import/convert them again.

Make sure the data in the back-end database has been converted to Access 97.
Access 97 will read and write to Access 2.0 tables, but won't allow any
design changes or deletion of tables (just data).

You probably will also need the 2.5/3.5 compatibility library to get
anything to compile. You should find it under Tools ... References from any
code window.
