Good day: Can you kindly assist me in opening a MS Access database with a file extension of .mde? I get an error message stating "This database is in an unrecognized format". Any help is greatfull. TIA
This usually indicates an attempt to open an Access 2000 database in an earlier version. -- MichKa [MS] NLS Collation/Locale/Keyboard Development Globalization Infrastructure and Font Technologies This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

A) That url isn't. B) If that's the best place to get answers, why do you hang out in a newsgroup designed to give people answers to questions such as this? Do you think you'll get everyone to abandon this newsgroup and hang out at dome mvp site? C) Michael's answer looks pretty spot on to me. -- Jeremy Wallace AlphaBet City Dataworks http://www.ABCDataworks.com "Robyn Schulz" <9mjvkwzs@hotmail.com> wrote in message news:51955e31d1bb830085f4c5717fca8f51@news.teranews.com... > > "mary" <chloemelmom@yahoo.com> wrote in message > news:a0a64947.0311151242.4df0c8a3@posting.google.com... > > Good day: > > > > Can you kindly assist me in opening a MS Access database with a file > > extension of .mde? > > > > I get an error message stating "This database is in an unrecognized > > format". > > > > Any help is greatfull. > > > > TIA > > > Best place to get answers is at the official MVP site: > http://mvp.org > Robyn Schulz, MVP > >

That's resident troll Don P Mellon, using one of his many pseudonyms. He hangs around here just to irritate and to try to discredit real Microsoft MVPs (I never saw a straight answer from Don saying why he has such a hatred for the MVP program.) > Do you think you'll get everyone to > abandon this newsgroup and hang > out at dome mvp site? Oh, no. By impersonating an MVP and giving that unhelpful and very irriatating link, he hopes to discredit real MVPs. Long-time participants here are familiar with his antics and tactics and mostly just ignore him, but occasionally someone like me posts an explanation like this for new participants. On the other hand, he has done much worse in the past. > C) Michael's answer looks pretty spot on to me. I've said before, and it's still true, "If Michael Kaplan tells you a rooster can pull a train, you can go buy your ticket."

What if he just hints that he might just possibly know something about a certain type of fowl that crows in the morning and has been seen down by the tracks?

Larry, Wow, I can't believe I didn't pick up on that. I've definitely been around here long enough to know him. Thanks for the heads up.
