I need to convert a bunch of Access97 databases to Access2000. I am planning on using the Windows Scripting Host shell command so that I can call Access and use the various command line options.

1. Is this the best way - I've done more VBA than VB

2. If a dialog pops (eg password), would that be a child window to the WSH object

3. If 2 above is true, can I retrieve its text so that I can react to the various dialog boxes I may encounter

Thanks in advance for any help and/or suggestions!

Have a great day!
