Hi,

I closed my Access 2003 database at work and came home and was going to begin working on it again and now I am getting an Unrecognized File Format error.Is there a fix for this? I've tried converting, compact and repair and creating a new database then importing but I still get the error. Thanks. I tried sending it to my home computer to see if it would open but even zipped its too big for may email limits.
 
Does any code run at start-up? If so, have you tried holding the shift key down while the application loads completely?

Unrecognized Database Format is more likely if there is a problem with the database, also, when you import the error stays, which implies a problem with the code.
