[AccessD] What problems converting A2K3 mdb to A2K7?

Tina,

I have converted my Social Service management from 2003 to 07.
It is about 35 meg. I had no issues at all. Just do not try
running the MDB under 2007. I ran into all kinds of corruption
of the database when I did that. But after converting it to
the 07 format, everything was smooth sailing with it.

So, I would say it is 99% probable that it is the rework.
