I'll find out more about runaccess.exe from sagekey

This is a reason to use the Sagekey scripts to build runtime installations.
The script addresses this issue by opening the runtime database through an
intermediary program "runaccess.exe" that takes care of the associated
registry settings with the appropriate time delays so they stay set.  You
could do the same thing, but would probably have to experiment with which
settings to work with and when to set them in relation to programs start.
There may be more info on the Sagekey site.

When I open a Runtime version of access, the file association changes so the
next time someone runs any MDB file, it tries to run 'Runtime', even though
they also have a full version on their PC.

I've found two registry settings that I could possibly modify every time I
close my Runtime version. Anyone run into this before? Is this the best way
to go?

Registry entries:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Access.Application.10\shell\Open\command
Data: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\MSACCESS.EXE" /NOSTARTUP
"%1"

-----
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Access.Application.10\shell\Open\command
Data: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\MSACCESS.EXE" /NOSTARTUP
"%1"


Thanks,

John
