Class modules were introduced in Access 97, and therefore are ignored during the conversion. Therefore, it is recommended that the end user double check the source Access 97 database and remove the tilde from any user defined object's name if this object is supposed to be converted. Therefore, it is recommended that the end user double check the source Access 97 database and remove the MSYS prefix from any user defined object's name if this object is supposed to be converted. While the conversion process is running, activating the minimized Access 95 Automation instance is not recommended. However, once you activate the Access instance, VB cannot trap these errors and you will be repeatedly prompted through several dialogs.
Automation is a slow process.
Depending on the number of objects and their complexity, the conversion time might vary significantly. If the Downsizer quits because of an unexpected error or the user cancels the conversion process, the Access 97 Automation instance might be left open in the environment. We're still working on this issue. A workaround is to simply close and restart the Downsizer. Depending on when the Cancel button is clicked, you might experience a delay between when you click the cancel button and when the confirmation dialog comes up.
