how to make access exe file from mdb file
I wish to convert my Access database files into .exe files or whatever is
necessary to make a database which can be used by people without Access on their computers. I also wish to post such a file on a website from which it can be downloaded. |

Access doesn't have an .exe/executable, per se. It does allow the creation
of an .mde version, in which the source code and design is "locked out". However, to run an .mde, the Access Runtime also needs to be loaded. As I understand it, the Access Runtime consists of much of the same components as are in the full version of Access! And you'll need to have a Developers License (varies with version of Access/Office) to distribute the Access Runtine on a royalty-free basis...(again, as far as I know). -- Good luck Jeff Boyce Access MVP |
