As this is a pre-historic version, can anyone advise of an upgrade path to something newer (e.g. 2000,2002)
Our organisation runs Win2000 and WinXP but WinXP is the preference
Can we convert to Access2000 without losing data or programs?
 
I've heard of no reports of losing data upgrading from Access 95 to any
other version.

The application itself should convert with little problems, provided you're
not using features that were only in Access 95 for backwards compatibility.
Make sure the application compiles successfully in Access 95 before trying
to convert.

Having said that, though, I'd recommend going to at least Access 2002.
Access 95 is generally considered to be the least stable version of Access,
but Access 2000 isn't that far behind it!
