I have an Access 97 DB that isn't working with Windows
XP. Is it advisable to convert straight to XP or convert
to Office 2000 then XP

Regards

Hi Rich,

The main thing is to ensure that it's in perfect condition in Access 97
(compiles properly, has been compacted, etc.). See these links for more:
