The Microsoft Access Product Group (the people who build Microsoft Access)
want your help! One of the main things we're working on for the near future
is a conversion tool to take Microsoft Access 97 databases (primarily, but
also Microsoft Access 2000 or 2002/XP databases) up to Microsoft Office
Access 2003. For us to do this, we need sample databases from *you*, our
customers, to ensure a quality tool.

Here is what we are looking for:

* Working Access 97 .mdb databases (we are also interested in Access 2000
and 2002 files) for conversion testing.
* Databases in wide use and in production environments.
* Please alter any sensitive information before providing us the database.
* The database will *not* be returned.
* Secured databases are welcome, just be sure to send the .MDW and the admin
user information.
* The database will be used for internal testing purposes *only* and will be
kept confidential within Microsoft.
* Please ZIP the file(s).

Please send your ZIPPED file(s) to (e-mail address removed).

As an alternative, you can submit your files via FTP site at
ftp://ftppss.microsoft.com/incoming. If you use the FTP site, please also
e-mail (e-mail address removed) with the database name(s).

Microsoft anticipates that it will make use of your file(s) to improve
Microsoft Access and other Microsoft products and technologies. While
Microsoft does not intend to make any public disclosure of your file(s), for
your protection, you should not disclose any information considered to be
confidential or proprietary in nature.

Thanks for helping Microsoft build better products!
