    Well ...

    I think the new DAO 3.6 library allows you to use either an Access2K or Access97 database. And I, too, doubt if a conversion is possible through VB ...

    Try

    Changing your connection string in VB to get the Access 2k (Jet.4 or Jet.3.5 can't remember which)

    Then use Access 2k and convert the dbs to new files. Then connect to these new files...
