I am trying to convert an Access 2010 BE Db (Tables only, no fancy
calculated fields or data macros) into Access 2003 format. I use
the Save & Publish option aqnd get an error "Could not use
'C:\Phil Data\Access\MDB 201 WFTCTab 2010.AccDb'; file already in
use" error. That is the file I want to convert and save as
WFTCTab2003.Mdb. Any idea what's wrond please?

Have you tried creating an A2003 MDB, then exporting the tables form
A2010 to the A2003 MDB? You'd have to do it one by one, but at last
you'd get the job done if it works.

Can't do that, David as I Only have Access 2010 on my machine.
If you look at my next posting, it appears to be a problem under windows 7,
but not Windows XP

Thanks
Phil

But, you obviously have someone with Access 2003 on their machine. Make the
Access 2003 DB there, carry the file to your machine, export the tables to
the Access 2003 DB, then carry the file back to the user.

It might be too heavy to carry.

The maximum size of an "Access database" is 2GB. A flash memory device or a
memory card (like the ones used in digicams), to hold more than 2GB can be
carried on your pinky if your sense of balance is good. If you have a
not-so-great sense of balance, maybe you'll want to carry the memory
device/card containing the file between your thumb and forefinger.

I wouldn't think the file would be too heavy... but it may be a bit too
large for your e-mail program to allow you to send it as an attachment to an
e-mail.
