    Access .mdb file

    There is an access file.mdb

    If I try to open the file in xp - it opens up the access program (in this case it is working correctly)

    But if I try to open it in windows 7, I get tables, why?

    Please help...

    Does this mean that it opens with only forms visible and no navigation panes visible either?

    When it opens in AC2007, you see the underlying table but not the form? What about the navigation pane? Is that also visible?

    Your post does not comply with Rule 8 of our Forum RULES. Cross-posting is when you post the same question in other forums on the web. You'll find people are disinclined to respond to cross-posts because they may be wasting their time solving a problem that has been solved elsewhere. We prefer that you not cross-post at all, but if you do (and it's unlikely to go unnoticed), you MUST provide a link (copy the url from the address bar in your browser)to the cross-post. Expect cross-posts without a link to be closed a message will be posted by the moderator explaining why. We are here to help so help us help you!
