Without more information, it is kind of hard to say. If you want to zip it
down, and email it to me, I can see if I can sneak in to it.

Convertion to Access 97 isn't better

I'm not sure from your description whether Access is crashing, or
whether there's code running in the database to close it. If it's the
latter, then maybe getting in without running the code is as simple as
holding down the Shift key while you open the database. It's possible
that option has been disabled, however, in which case you have to reset
that option from outside the database before you do it. If that's the
case, post back for the necessary code.
