I believe if you turn on a "feature" or install a patch which "helps fix" an issue with junk email, outlook blocks specific file formats, which includes mdb files. This is built into Outlook 2002, but is included in a hotfix for 2000. I've encountered this issue before as well.
This may be of some help, its a MS Knowledge base article on the topic: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;q290497 It's very helpful, I haven't tried the registry fix yet, but it looks promising. There's also a list of all the "unsafe" file types that Outlook blocks when this is installed. Hope this helps.
