order - backend or 2002-2003 convert tracktraining 11/13/2008 7:24:01 PM Hi All, I was wondering which one is better: creating the backend (Database splitter) then convert to 2002-2003 (for MDE) or should I convert first then Database splitter? This is what I am thinking: 1. original DB 2. make a copy of the original DB 3. database splitter of the copy 4. in the copy - set up startup then convert to 2002-2003 format 5. make MDE is that the order of how it should be done? any other suggestions? Thanks, Tracktraining -- Learning
