Conversion of Access 97 to Access 2003 and 2007
I am responsible for the maintenance of several Access 97 databases, some of which are very complex with numerous forms, code modules etc.
We will soon be changing our Access platform to 2003 or 2007.
Please would you be able to tell me how much effort is typically required in re-writing the Access 97 code to run on the later platforms?
Thanks, Jonathan Hodge
RE: Conversion of Access 97 to Access 2003 and 2007
Hi Jonathon
Thank you for your question
In 2001 I was involved in migrating databases from 97 to 200
From memory there was very little problem in migrating from Access 97 to 2000 in terms of coding, and I imagine the same would apply for 2003 and 2007.
I seem to recall that there was the occasional problem with additional spaces being entered into the code as well as the odd additional line break. This may just have been an issue with the editor that I was using at the time. In any event this was easily solved.
Regards
Stephen
