Just got this error message when trying to use a script to convert my database to 2000...

Could not find installable ISAM.

Just curious as to what it is. I'm guessing its a component or something of the like.

Can you post a link to the script you are using? I'll take a look and see what's up. I've seen that error before, it had to do with the connection string.

But that gave the same error I'm currently getting... so I converted the connection to the following

Engine.CompactDatabase "DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=" & SourceDB, _
"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Jet OLEDB:Engine Type=" & Format & ";Data Source=" & DestDB

The Compact Database link in the Archive Forum Topics section of the Admin Options should do the same thing as this script does.

If you want, you can e-mail me your password and I can download your databases and convert them, and then re-upload them.

I couldn't get that script to work on an Access97 DB on my 121 host account either. But, it works fine on IIS5.1 on my machine.
