No, you cannot build an "exe" file from an "mdb" file. To do what you are
suggesting, you must purchase the MS Office Developer Suite that has the
"RunTime" Packager software to produce standalone, royalty-free MS Access
databases. This runtime database can be used on computers without the full
version of MS Access installed.

Hi,
I have a fully functional MS-Access database.
May I build such an "exe" file from a MS-Access
"mdb" file which one who has not MS-Access
installed on his/her system can take advantage of the
database? is it possible to have an standalone
MS-Access application with no need to use the MS-Access
environment itself ?
