[AccessD] XP-mde on A2003?

William,
To test this again, I created a new db db1.mdb
	created (only) one form with a label that says "TEST" and no module
	made it the startup form
created an mde from db1.mdb - error "you cannot create a Microsoft Access
ADE or MDE from a database saved in Microsoft Access 2000 format"
converted db1.mdb to a2k3 - db2.mdb
created an mde from db2.mdb - db2.mde

opened db1.mdb in a2k3 - worked
opened db2.mdb with a2k3 - worked
opened db2.mde with a2k3 - worked

opened db1.mdb in a2k - worked
opened db2.mdb with a2k and get error "this database is in an unrecognized
format"
opened db2.mde with a2k and get error "this database is in an unrecognized
format"

I just reinstalled from scratch a couple of weeks ago so I'd be interested
to know if you can do this same thing successfully.

John B.

...have you tried using late binding and ensuring the paths are the same?
