Exceeded maximum days for replication

Greetings all,

I have a bit of a problem that I've inherited and at a loss of what to
do.

I have 2 Access 2000 databases that can't synchronize; they were left
alone for too long:

"This member of the replica set has exceeded the maximum number of days
allowed between synchronizations and can't be synchronized with any
other members of the replica set."

Additionally, the 2 databases are replicas. I'm not sure what was done
with the design master. I can promote one of the replicas to the
design master, but the above error about "..exceeded the maximum number
of days.." still shows up.

(I had hoped to promote one database to design master and manually copy
the 2nd replicas records into it {the records are discernible} and
restart replication)

Any ideas?

Is there any way to turn this error off and let the databases synch up?

.
