How do I save data in an earlier version with Access 2000?

I have a client with a database on a Windows 2003 server. I can get into the
database but it won't let me save any of my changes. Error message reads:
"You can't make changes to the database objects in the database 'source'. The
database was created in an earlier version of Microsoft Access. To convert
this database to the current version of Microsoft Access, close the database,
point to the Database Utilities on the Tools menu, and then click Convert
Database.
I can't do that though, because my client also updates this database on
whatever version they have so I don't want to convert it so that they can't
access it.
HELP!

If you want your client to continue using the database, you'll have to use
the same version s/he uses to make the changes.

Good luck
