Cannot open .accdb file

I have Access 2003, but need to view a .accdb file.
Downloaded "MDB Viewer Plus", but it gives me this error message: "Provider cannot be found.  It may not be properly installed."
If I try to open a .mdb file, everything seems to work.
Any suggestions?

You'll have to look at the file on a computer with Access 2007 (or higher) installed - depending on the version of Access used to create the database.

(The accdb format is not Access 2003 compatible)

???  What is the purpose of using this software if you already have Access 2007 installed?
