Project on access 2010 car wash db?
I have created a database in access 2010 about car wash. Does this access 2010 car wash db compatible with access 2003.
My friend is having ms access 2003 on his pc.
Any advice. Thanks.

Microsoft Office Access 2007 and 2010 uses the same default file format, .accdb while versions of Office Access earlier than Office Access 2007 uses .mdb file format by default. Now, if you want to create a database in Office Access 2010 that can be opened in Office Access 2003, the easiest way is to use the “Save As” option to convert the database to the older version.
Even if it is possible to convert the database using “Save As”, it is only possible if the .accdb file from Office Access 2010 doesn’t contain features that require the .accdb file to run. To convert the database from Office Access 2010 to Office Access 2003, in Office Access 2010, click “File” then “Save & Publish”. In “Save Database As” dialog, select one of the following:
After this, select “Save As”. Here, if the database contains features that prevent you from saving in the .mdb file format, you should see a message on your screen and it will prevent you from continuing. If this happens, go to Factors that Prevent Conversion and then address the factors so you can continue saving the file. Enter the file name then click “Save”.
