How do i open a 97' database in office 2003
It would appear that you're trying to use a shortcut to open the database.
Take a look at the properties of that shortcut: it sounds as though it's pointing to a network location that is no longer valid. In other words, this has nothing to do with Access 97 vs. Access 2003, but more likely with how drives are being mapped, or changes to servers and/or shares. -- Doug Steele, Microsoft Access MVP http://I.Am/DougSteele (no e-mails, please!)
