What the attached file is?

If it is native Access file, (*.mdb/*.mde/*.adp/*.ade), then it must be
created by Access2003, the only version that is newer than Access2002. You
cannot open it with Access2002, in this case. However, you can bring this
file to a computer where Access2003 is installed, open it and convert it to
the format of Access2002. Of course, you can ask the sender to convert it to
Access2002 format before sending it to you.
 
The sender probably use A2003 file format.

Ask the sender to convert a copy of the database to A2000 file format and
send you the converted copy. A2002 sofware can open bothe A2000 file format
and A2002 file format.
