Access database won't open

B

I have an Access database that was copied from a Win/2000 system. When I try
to open it on my XP Prof system, with Access 2002, I get the following error
message:

"The current user account doesn't have permission to convert or enable this
database.

To convertor enable a database, ensure the following:
- You must join the workgroup that defines the user accounts used to access
ths database.
- Your user account must have Open/Run and Open Exclusive permissions for
the database object
- Your user account must have Modify Design or Administer permissions fro
all tables in the databases, or it must be the owner of all tables in the
database.
-Your user account must have Read Design permission for all objects in the
database.
- Request that other users close the database."

What has to be done, either on the Win/2000 system or on my XP Prof system
to be able to open the database??

Thanks...

You can't go back and forth with these versions of
office... once the database is in XP you have to use XP...

Good luck.

So, are there any "Tricks" I can import the Win/2000 database into XP
Office?

Thanks....
