SYMPTOMS
When you try to open or to convert a Microsoft Access 2.0 database file in Microsoft Office Access 2003, you receive the following message:

You must install the Microsoft Access 2.0 Converter in order to convert this file.

To obtain the Access 2.0 Converter from the Microsoft Office Web site, click &quot;Microsoft Office Online&quot; on the Help menu.



CAUSE
This issue occurs because you have to install additional files that are not installed by Access 2003 to open or to convert an Access 2.0 database file.



RESOLUTION
To download the Access 2.0 Converter free of charge, visit the following Microsoft Web site:
