I am trying to import dbase III files into an Access 2016 database. I actually had this working by installing Microsoft Jet Drivers for 2016 redistributable. Then it stopped working. The message I get says 'You cannot use ODBC to import from, export to, or link an external Microsoft Access or ISAM database table to your database'.
In Access 2013, Microsoft removed support for interacting with dBase. In Office 365 and Office 2019 they have reintroduced it.

I plan to package and deploy an ms access .accdb that I've created in access 2016 using SSE Setup to a user that has a full version of access 2003. If the package installs Access 2016 runtime, will it corrupt the 2003 software, or will it only affect the accdb that I am packaging

The only thing I can find different between working and non-working machines is in the Data Link Providers. in the non-working machines I am missing 'Microsoft Office 15.0 Access Database Engine OLE DB Provider'.
I assume these documents were created using this provider and my trouble machines does not have it.
Any tips for how to get it?
Thanks!
The solution was to install the Access 2013 Runtime. This made 'Microsoft Office 15.0 Access Database Engine OLE DB Provider' available in Word 2016. Although the default application to launch .ACCDB became the runtime, so I needed to change the default back to 2016.
Here's a link to the 2013 Runtime: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=39358
At work I have a very basic MS Access 2010 database (tables and basic forms, no special coding). At home I have Access 2003 on my XP michine. Is it possible to be able to open and work on the 2010 DB in my 2003 version? Please don't start making the suggestions of upgrading. I have an older machine with XP (yes, I know XP is no longer supported by Microsoft), but at this time don't have the money to buy a new system and new software. Just need to know if (and how) can I work on 2010 version in 2003 version.
Thanks
Kenny
The file format used changed with Access 2007 from using.mdbto.accdband in order to open the file with Access 2003 you would have to save the file in the earlier format. This page has information on how to do this: Save an Access 2010 database in an earlier file format
In my application I create ADP and then import it into my .accdb file. But when I use my application on Access 2013 then I do not import my ADP data into my .accdb file because Office 2013 does not support ADP. Now I want the solution of this problem with no change in my previous work so that my application will work on all Office versions. How can I use my ADP in my .accdb on Access 2013?
Umm, I believe the essence of the answer to your question is in your question...
Office 2013 does not support ADP
...so the answer to...
How can I use my ADP in my .accdb on Access 2013?
...is:
You don't.
You can use ADP, or you can use Access 2013: Pick one.
I have an Access database in source control on TFS that I need to pull down onto another machine (XP, Office 2007). I have the Team Foundation Server MSSCCI Provider 2010 installed and I can successfully see the source. However, when I try to have it created it fails, giving me this error:
Failed to create a new database on a Team Foundation project.
Any idea what I've done wrong on this machine?
I think the solution to this was that I had sent the database up to TFS from Access 2010, but was trying to pull it down to another machine with Access 2010. I thought the two versions shouldn't matter, but sending it up to TFS in Access 2007 and bringing it down in Access 2007 and Access 2010 appeared to work.
