In my school the were using VB6 to program a game in. VB6 only likes to data link with access 1997.
If a version of access is set to 1997, the only way to edit the database (except for putting new records in) is to use the 1997 version of access.
My school uses access 2003, this means we have to make our database in 2003 then use the converter built into 2003 to get our 1997 version of our database so it is compatible with VB6.
I however only have 2007 at home, so i was wondering if it is possible to convert my 2003 database to 1997 format without having to get a copy of 2003 just to use the built-in converter.

Thanks in advance :)

This is more of a "Microsoft Office" question than a "Software Development" question. You might get a better/quicker response on that forum.
