Downgrade Access 2007 to 2003
I have CD's for MSOffice 2007, but can only run Access 2003 for our app. It was installed years ago, server crashed and I need to reinstall Access 2003. There used to be a microsoft site with these download files but I can't find it. Anyone know how to do this?

Why can you ONLY run A2003? You don't have to convert the app to run it with A2007.
If you have a MSDN subscription you can download any Office version from MSDN Portal

maharlika,
1. Have you tried running the app with a different version of Access? What happens?
2. Are you sure the app is written in Access and not just using a Jet database? Way too many people don't know the difference. If the app is not an Access database, then all you need to install is Jet and there is a free download for that if it is not installed with your operating system.
I've run lots of A2003 applications using A2007 and A2010 without a problem.
