Using an Access 2003 database with Access 2002

[Gary]

Hi,

Does anyone know if there are any issues with using Access 2002 with a
database that was created with Access 2003?

Thanks for the help!

Not really. 2002 and 2003 both default to A2000 format, but both can use A2002
format. There is no distinct A2003 format.

There might be some features introduced in A2003 code that won't work in 2002
but you should be able to find these by simply compiling the project and
identifying any errors.

That's not true, though the differences are not necessarily in
Jet-related parts of the format, but more in the VBA aspects.
