You can choose compatibiliy level 70. There still are cases of what
is is illegal syntax bot not caught by SQL 2000. (Don't know if SQL 7
has the same issues.) But with compatibility level 70, some functionalit
will not be available to you.
Beside mew reserved keywords, the main issue is the old-style outer
join (*= and =*) that are not permitted in level 90. If you have this,
rewrite it, because this is crap.
Note that you could run into issues if you upgrade to SQL 2000 as
well, althogh I think difference between level 70 and 80 is just
three keywords.
I've seen some mentions that Access 2003 is not co-operative with SQL2005,
but you probably get better answer on that in an Access newsgroup.
