We use a DOT created MVB file to read an S&S SDB file and create a couple of tables from the data within. I knew it was an Access database and wanted to look at the contents to see if I can extract or change something within, but my 2010 Access says it cannot open an SDB from an earlier version.
So let me also ask this - where is the Manhole "Display as Cone" stored and can I turn it off and update a profile?
Chuck, All versions of access should be able to open the file. You don't want to upgrade the file though, just leave it in it's current version format. The Manhole "Display as Cone" is found in the create profile command under the Include section. You'll see the toggle towards the bottom of the dialog. Regards, Jason Gingrich

But it seems like if I display a profile that way, it is on forever in that profile. To turn it off, I have to create a new profile window.
Also, on the Access file - Access 2013 64 bit does not seem like it wants to open the SDB file.
I tried with and without changing the extension.
