  nothing has changed with Access in that regard.  You still cannot create a
standalone .EXE with Access (and those holding your breath for that I think
will be holding it for a very long time).

  You need a user with either a full version of Access or you need to
distribute the run-time version with your app.

  What has changed though is that the run-time is now free from Microsoft
and can be downloaded from their site:

9fa6-2c745a175aed&displaylang=en

  Watch for line wrap.

Jim.

Hi All:

I am upgrading a clients old Access97/2 to Access2007.

Is there anything I should know about the migration process other than
turning off the 'Ribbon'... how does that command go again?

Is it possible to create a stand alone program with Access2007? If so what
is needed?

MTIA and a Happy New-Year.

Jim
