Converting the ugly Access 2000 interface to Access 2003 style?

I have to work with several databases originally created in Access 2000, and I'm sick of dealing with flat buttons and a putty-colored default form. How can I update the interface to use the Access 2003 (WindowsXP) style command buttons and color schemes in the forms?

Update:

I just started learning about Access 2007's "Ribbon" menu system - it's 100% XML. The Microsoft Dev team is going hardcore into XML.

    AFAIK, unless you can find a utility on the web somewhere, you'll have to modify each form/button/scheme yourself. Even if you save your mdb in the new format (Access XP or 2003 or whatever), it will still retain its old attributes. Sorry.

    I myself sure wish that the mdb (at least the forms and vb) was stored as xml so you could have a whack at it as text. Maybe Access 2007 is like that...
