I understand that 2007 versions of Word, Excel and PowerPoint have the XML
format. What is the corresponding format for Access 2007?

Thanks in advance!

Hi, Kathy.

There really isn't a corresponding file format for Access, because Access
uses a database file to store the data and database objects. Access 2007
still uses MDB files for the Jet database engine and ACCDB files for the new
ACE database engine. However, Access 2007 can output data to XML files, if
that's what you're looking for.
