Using MS Access template meant for Access 2000

[Guest]

Hello, I have tried to use a Access template at the Microsoft site for music
CD's and one for DVD's. When I try to open the template in Access it throws
errors. The template says it requires Access 2000. I have Access 2003,
shouldn't the template be backwards compatible? Is there any way I can still
use it?

Thanks in advance for any help

2003 *defaults* to A2000 format. What errors are you getting? Whatever
it is - it's not the version alone.
