access 2007 and asp 3.0

[Dan =?iso-8859-1?Q?Marin=F8?=]

hi all

i am in a big trouble with access 2007

i have an asp 3.0 website, with an access 2000 db in the backend. i often
update this file, i add some record, i delete some and so on.

some days ago, i did the same thing but with access 2007 (i formerly used
access 2003): obviously i had a backup of the old file and obviously i did
not convert the mdb file to the new access 2007 format.

ok.

finally, after the update, i upped via ftp the file and... surprise!

Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80004005'
Unrecognized database format.

ok again.

then i got the new file, i opened it with access 2003 (without any
problem), then i rebuilt it with access 2003, i uploaded it and... the same
error.

agh.

seeking on google, i found 2 answers: a) corrupted file (but it has just
been created from scratch from access 2003... and anyway, access can read
it!), b) installing mdac/jet: but on the server there are already the
latest versions... and anyway, the db is an Access 2000 db, and i always
used this file format...

someone can help me?

thanks in advance

i had a go at access 2007
how the crap do you get a list of the forms/tables etc ?

but anyway
they changed the format from 2000 to 2003, only slightly i think, few extra
features in 2003
not sure if access has any controls for downgrading database version
access 2003 does default to 2000 format though, not that that is any use

also

BACKUP ! (not that i need to tell you that i'm sure though)
