I converted database from A97 to A2003. Simple DB, only tables. Usually
converted without any issues. But this time i got a error:

Table MWO Task -1605: Could not find field 'Description'.

I do not know what it means. I could not find any info.
 
The error probably indicates a corruption in the A97 database, or a
misinterpretation of the database in A2003.

You could try a compact and repair (Tools | Database Utilities) using A97.
If that fixes a corruption, the data might convert correctly.

If that doesn't work, you could try creating a new (blank) database in
A2003. Immediately uncheck the Name AutoCorrect boxes under Tools | Options
| General. Then try importing from the A97 file: File | Get External |
Import.

If the problem is still there, you should be able to import all the data
from the *other* tables using the 2nd approach. You might them be able to
export the data from A97 to (say) dBase format, and then import that into
the A2003 file.
