I have a database written in 2003 but when I run it on a
machine with access 2000 I get a variety of errors.
Syntax error and page faults when I try to open certain
forms. Is this a known problem?
 
Theoretically, a database created in A2003 using the A2000 format should be
useable in A2000, assuming you have not used features introduced after
A2000.

In practice, you can run into instability problems:
- Ensure you have the latest service packs for A2000.
- Decompile in A2000, Compact, and then Compile.

If you still have crashes, create a new mdb in Access 2000, turn off Name
AutoCorrect (Tools | Options | General), and then import all the objects
from the file created by A2003.
