Thanks Jeanette
When I opened the code and check the references the Microsoft DAO 3.6 Object
Library was already checked, I compacted and repaired a few times and the
result is the same, the Main Menu Form will not open it still thinks I have
not converted to a newer version. Could there be something in the code
somewhere that is causing this? if so where can i find it?

Hi Brent,
When you have the database open and the main form open in design view, open
the code window and check the references.
You will need to select the Microsoft DAO 3.6 Object Library as a reference.
After you set that reference and close the references dialog, do a compile
and fix any errors until the code compiles.

I have just converted a database from version 97 / 2000 to MS Access 2003.
The Main menu form will not open, I get a message that I must convert to a
newer version that 97 / 2000 and then it closes the database down. I have
converted the database. This is the only form that will not open. I open
the
database using the shift key and the main form will open in design view.
Can
someone help with this problem?

Thanks
