Show your code that opens the database ans show which line is nr 14.

Can you open the mdb file in Access?

It's highly likely that you have a corrupted database file. If you can open
the db in Access, use the Compact and Repair option under Tools. If you
can't, see if anyone in the microsoft.public.access group can help.

I used Microsoft access 2003 in ASP Connection Code. Now i m using
Microsoft Access 2007 but my code is not supporting the 2007 Access
version (.accdb) its gives error like: Error Type:
Microsoft JET Database Engine (0x80004005)
Unrecognized database format 'c:\inetpub\wwwroot\hps\hpsschool.accdb'.
/hps/login.asp, line 3

Please tell me how can i solve this problem.

You didn't show us the code that produced this error, but if I had to guess,
I would say you are using the wrong provider in your connection string. Go
to www.connectionstrings.com to see the correct connection string for
connecting to an Access 2007 file.

Seems your Jet engine is not up to it.

Trust M$, that possibly there is no newer engine, Bob will know.

It's a new version of Jet that's completely divorced from the old one ...
