I am absolutly not into Microsoft Access and I have the following problem.

A cliend gave me a .mbd file that should contain an old Access "application" (DB + DB queries + forms). The data contained into this old management system implemented in Access has to be migrated into a brand new management system.

I checked and this Access "application" works fine on the client PC (they use Microsoft Access 2003) but when I try to open on my system (I am using Office 365) I obtain the following view:

enter image description here

So, as you can see in the previous printscreen, it seems that I can list the objects that compose my Access application (DB tables, DB queries, Forms) but when I try to accessto the content of a specific table (selecting it) I am obtaining this error message:

......access is not a valid path. make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the files resides

Reading better the error it seems that it is refferring to a specific file that is not the one that I am running.

So my doubt is: is it possible that an Access application is composed by more than a single file and that these data are into this file named copia di Agenda medica be.md? In case do you think that adding this file in the expected path (or can I change this path from Access settings in some way?) it should work?

  • I am surprised you get that far when attempting to open MDB in 365.
