How to fix the error of collating sequence not supported with the specified file format

When I use a ASP script to retrieve the data from a Access MDB file, I got an error: collating sequence not supported with the specified file format.

Actually, it happened when I move the site to a new server.

The solution was to go to the File tab in 2010, click the options link and set the sort order for new databases to 'General - legacy'.

Then compact and repair the database file. Tools > Database Utilities > Compact and Repair Database

After above procedures, the error is gone.
