WILL NEW READ OLD?

Have used Office 97 programs to perform my small business records. All of my
500 or so customers information is in Access 97 along with my sales info.
Love that data base stuff.
I want to upgrade to Office Ultimate 2007 but.......will all of my "old"
stuff upconvert to Office 2007? Or, will Office 2007 be able to read my
files created in Office 97 and convert them to savable records?

Please help, Peterfst in SLC

Maybe best posted to an Access specific newsgroup.
Amongst other things it will depend on what / how much coding you have used
in your db, as to how much of your db will require modifying / converting
I have only gone from A2k to A2003 and it wasnt too much trouble
