I think what Aaron is referring to is the "Access 2003 Conversion Toolkit"
which you can get at
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...76-5D89-450A-B977-980A9841111E&displaylang=en.
Actually, it is more for analyzing your databases for potential conversion
issues than actually converting them.
Also, take a look at the conversion whitepaper available at
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/237313/EN-US/. (The issue for converting to
Access 2002 and 2003 are basically the same as converting to Access 2000.)
For programmatically converting, as long as you are in Access
2000/2002/2003, there is a new constant for CompactDatabase, dbVersion40,
that the help file doesn't mention. (You can find it using the object
browser in a VBA window.)
Good luck.
