--- Comment #9 from garth.hutchin...@ca.inter.net --- OK - updated JRE, checked all needed options in place and connected successfully to hymns-backup.accdb file but not to hymns.mdb file. Have one idea as to the cause. There are two flavours of .mdb files - have run into this before in other connections (my memory is a little hazy where MS Access 2007 fits in the discussion below. Flavour 1 (or, Flavor 1, if you prefer): a file that has been created and/or updated only by MS Access 97/2000/2003 and MAYBE 2007 - this can be opened again and again by those versions. Flavour 2: a file that has been created by any of the above and then a. updated by MS Access 2010/13/16; will no longer be able to be opened by MS Access 1997/2000/2003 and MAYBE 2007 The MAYBE comes in that MS Access 2007 is neutral in all this or whether it falls in same catecory as 2010 plus; but I think it is neutral because I vaguely remember using to created a downward compatible version of a .mdb file I can research this later but need to set up a couple of VM's with old versions of MS Access on them. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
