What should I do? I created an app in A2003. Want to distribute as MDE Split
in 2000. MDB file created in A2003 as A2000 file. From what I understand, I
should:

Take db to my A2000 machine.
Compact and Repair
Compile
Compact and Repair
Create MDE File
Compact and Repair
Spilt Database
Compact and Repair

Souond about right?

Split the database first.

Only convert the front-end to an MDE (there's no advantage to making the
back-end an MDE)
