Unable to "Make Design Master"

[Nicole Tedesco]

This is weird: I am unable to convert my project into a "Design Master."  Once I select to "Make Design Master..." out of my project, after being prompted for proceeding I get the following error:

"Operation not supported on replicable databases that have not been converted to the current version."

What am I doing wrong?

I am running version 7.1.830 on Windows XP SR3, 4GB RAM (and plenty of disk space)

My guess is that you have Jet 4 enabled, but the model itself is not Jet 4.  You could either upgrade your model using Access, or download the Jet 4 base model and do a data transfer to it.
