Convert Access Database

[mot98]

Hi All,

I am attempting to convert an Access 2000 database back to Access 97 format.

However, when I run the convert utility, I am getting the following error:

Invalid Field Data Type

Then it errors saying file could not be converted.

Has anyone seen this before?

Just taking a guess, but..."An Access 2000 database containing a table with a FieldSize property of Decimal cannot be converted to Access 97. You must change the FieldSize property to another value such as Single or Double, or you must change the data type of the field to Currency before you can successfully convert the database."

If this doesn't pertain to your situation, post back with the properties of the field that's giving you this blowup.
