I am developing an Access database with files linked to external
spreadsheets and wish to distribute it as an 'exe' file.
Is this possible and if so, can anyone answer my dumb question?

You don't mention Access version, so what I say may be out of
date... for the Access 97 that I have there is a developer's
version which allows you to distribute a RUNTIME module (it
is, as far as I know, the full Access install with all of the
development interface options disabled) with a wizard in the
program which creates the install routine and the links to
the database application you have created
I will GUESS this is still true, but I have not looked at any
of the newer versions of Access, so am not 100% sure
You should go to the Microsoft site and search around for
your version of Access

For MS Office XP (Access 2002) there is a developer editon, which includes
Access runtime and packaging wizard.
Unfortunately, for MS Office 2003 (Access 2003) there is no such developer
edition, but you must purchase Visual Studio Tools for MS Office :( , which
contains Access 2003 runtime and packaging wizard.

How can I use a MS-Access DB in a computer without Access installed? I

I'm still confused.
I'm trying to help out a buddy to extract data from an .mdb file that

If I try to open it with the standard system.mdw file, I get the
"Current user account doesn't have permission to covert or enable this

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
