Converting databases tfrom an older to a later version

Hi
I have an Access application with 2 databases ; kobject and ktables.
This application is used by several users in various companies.
I also have a special .mdw file to protect the application.
Some of my clients would like to upgrade their Access version from 2000 to a
later
more recent version - Access 2003.
How can I allow a user to convert the two databases from an older to a later
Access version
without interfering with the security?
Any hints will be appreciated.
Best regards
Orjan

Have you tried upgrading and using the original (A2000) system db?

A2003 can just use the A2000 versions of the files anyway, without upgrading
them.
