Default Editing in a 2007 mdb using 2003 version

I brought home on my flash drive the mdb from the office that I need to edit
records in. It is 2003 version. At home I have 2007.

All the editing is simple text editing in the master table spreadsheet. Is
it safe to do this in 2007?

Janet,

As long as you only open the file and not convert it and you are only
editing data in your tables, you should be fine.

Just be sure not to convert the 2003 file to the 2007 format.
