I would do it just for the amount of time you will save using the 2003 UI you are familiar with, rather than stuffing around in Access 2007's clunky interface and ribbon.

And if you don't have it already I would get a copy of "Find and Replace". <<http://www.rickworld.com/>>.  It costs about $37 USD for the full version but the cost is completely worth it.   This lill addin has saved me hundred of hours of stuffing around when cleaning up databases.  You can download the trial version and run it for 30 days or so for free if that suits you better.

Cheers
Darryl.

Yes, but it's already in 2007 ACCDB format.
Only way to go BACK is export everything, and import in 2003, right ?

There's no downsize wizard ;)
