cannot find MSysAccessObjects

[Kruppy]

When trying to convert a database to A2003 I get the following error message.

The Microsoft jet database engine cannot find the input table or query
'MSysAccessObjects'. Make sure it exists
and that its name is spelled correctly.

Kruppy,

This is a symptom of a possible corruption.

Take a look at http://www.granite.ab.ca/access/corruptmdbs.htm,
http://www.granite.ab.ca/access/corruption/symptoms.htm, and
http://www.granite.ab.ca/access/corruption/importafterrepair.htm.

As Tony says many time on these pages, do NOT do anything to your original
database but MAKE BACKUPS of it. Do the things he mentions only to BACKUPS.

The first technique that I personally try is to import all of the objects
into a new, empty database. This simple technique has saved me more times
than I can remember.

Good luck.
