I've had zero difficulty converting A97 apps to A2K3. All my apps are
against oracle databases, most using PTQ and DAO, but I did have some
older apps written in the 90s that used linked tables. No trouble doing
a conversion on these either.
All these conversions were just done simply by (first saving a backup)
opening the A97 app in A2K3 and following the conversion routines.
I've almost no experience with A2K, but I can only imagine it would be
just as easy.
Only thing that gave me a minor issue were Oracle DSN connect strings,
and this was, I'm pretty sure, just a case of older installs of the
Oracle client.
