Opening Access 2000 database in Access 2007

Microsoft Access 2007 is embedded with advanced and new features that enable you to quickly start reporting, sharing, and tracking information in a manageable environment. You can easily open the Microsoft 2000, 2002, or 2003 database in Microsoft Access 2007 after migrating it to the later version. However, if you attempt to open an older version of Access database directly from the new version (without migrating it into new version), database corruption might occur. In such situations, the data stored in the database becomes inaccessible. To access the data stored in the older version of the database, you will need to restore it from an updated backup. But if in case, you have not maintained any backup or backup falls short to restore the required data, then you will need to repair the database using an advanced access repair application.

To illustrate this, consider an example where you have created your financial tables in Access 2000. However, when you attempt to open your financial tables from Access 2007, you encounter an error message. Once the error message appears, the data stored in your financial tables becomes inaccessible. Furthermore, you encounter the same error message each time you attempt to open your financial tables.

The root cause for the error message is the corruption of your financial tables. Corruption occurs because you tried to open your financial tables directly from an updated version (MS Access 2007.) To prevent corruption, you should always migrate the database component to the new version, instead opening it directly from the updated MS Access version.

Resolution

To resolve the above error message and accessing your financial tables, you will need to use an inbuilt repair utility named “Compact and Repair”. In most situations, the inbuilt repair utility successfully repairs your corrupted Access database components. But, if the repair utility fails to repair your financial reports, then you will need to use advanced Access Repair software. Such Access Database Repair tool incorporates high end scanning algorithms to repair access database files (.accdb and .mdb).

Access Recovery is a simple, fast, and easy Access Database Repair software that repairs all corrupted Access databases created in Microsoft Access 2007, 2003, XP (2002), and 2000. The non destructive tool can repair access database objects like, tables, queries, forms, reports, macros, and modules. It is designed for Windows Vista, XP, 2003, 2000, and NT operating systems.
