    Upgrading Access to 2007

    Hi,
    I have an application which is written in Access 2003, with a SQL
    server 2000 back end. The application uses a lot of VBA, as well as
    quite a few macros.

    We are about to upgrade to Office 2007. What are the main issues I
    should look out for?

    Thanks for any help

    Colin

    Here's a starting point:
    The advantages you gain and problems you experience when upgrading to Microsoft Access 2007 from previous versions


    The article doesn't deal specificially with the SQL Server back end: that
    depends if it's MDB or ADP.

      Thanks for putting that together. It will save me some time and headaches
      if any clients move to 2007.

        Hi,
        you might also find my website helpful. It deals with the conversion
        process from Acc2003 to 2007:

          Awesome, oli-s! I glanced at it just now, but I'll read the whole thing in
          the next couple days.
