Access 2003 MDB with security login not working in access 2007
We have a couple of databases in Office 2003 that are mdb and have logins that are controlled by the access security feature. When I attempt to open them in 2007 I get an error that states:
Error:
The operating system is not presently configured to run this application.
Any ideas?

Are you running Access on Windows Vista?

Our Workstations have XP
The Access databases work with Access 2003
They just won't open in Access 2007

Some of our Databases use *.ldw and mdb1 or mdb2 , I am not sure why they wrote them this way< I am just trying to get access 2007 to work with them
Here is a potential solution:
