I just downloaded the Office 365 trial so I can do my university assignment from home however when I opened my database in access 2013 and then re-uploaded it via FTP I am getting the following error message:

Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80004005'

Unrecognized database format 'D:\WEB\wwwroot\courses\benv\2410\2013s2\3420384\assign4\homerenovation.mdb'.

/courses/benv/2410/2013s2/3420384/assign4/post.asp, line 38

I was working in the 2002-2003 access format before this happened and I think it may have changed that. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    What don't you save your work in lower version even if you are working it on access 2013 database? – Edper Nov 01 '13 at 01:58

Saved as a 2003 version and kept a a copy of the old one. The newly saved one is working.

    You've got it working, that's good. Current versions of Access use the ACE driver. see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14401729/difference-between-microsoft-jet-oledb-and-microsoft-ace-oledb and http://www.connectionstrings.com/access/ for a bit more background info – John Nov 01 '13 at 11:34
