I set the my database name in the data control properties, in result when the application is ran i recieve this error:

Unrecognized database fromat 'FILE PATH & NAME'

Heres the thing that confuses me, if i create a .mdb file using Access 2000 it doesn't work, but if i set the database name to a file that was created with access '97 it works?? Should i uninstall Access 200 & install '97???
