I suppose it's possible that it's noticing that your backend tables are in
Access 2003, and it knows that Access 97 won't be able to read them, but I
didn't think that was part of Access 2003!
See whether converting the back-end to Access 97 first makes a difference.

I have. When I was strugling with a file "problem" the other day I recalled
someone saying that they had fixed a file by converting to a newer version
and then back again so I gave it a shot. Converted to2002/2003 format
(using 2003) and then back again. Everything went great except I noticed
that many (not all) of my linked tables were now local. I don't know if it
was the convert up or the convert down that did it, but I had been assuming
that it was the convert down.
