What file format is it in? You might want to try saving it as a mdb if its in the new accdb format. To that that you go to save as and then select the format as access 2002 – 2003 database (from memory!)
EDIT:
Ok as it is an accdb file format your problem is that the 2010 accdb format is slightly different to the 2007 version due to the new access 2010 featues. Have a look here for what to do to sort it out
