Thinking about this I thought of a cool (in my view) way of handling this,
that is probably what Susan was talking about.  Now I'm
wondering why I didn't do this years ago.

1. Start Windows Explorer,
2. Select Tools and then Folder Options...
3. Click on the File Types Tab
4. Find the MDB file type
5. Click Advanced
6. Chances are there are 2 options.  Open in bold font (denoting default)
   and New.  You can pretty much add what you want here.  For decompile,
7. Click New
8. Under action type Decompile
9. Under Application used to perform action type the equivalent for your
   install:
  "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\MSACCESS.EXE" /decompile "%1"
10 Click OK and exit out

And wallah!  You now right click an mdb and have the context option of
decompiling it.

But it doesn't stop there.  For those of us juggling multiple versions of
Access you can setup a right click option to open in each.
Eg
Open in 97
Open in 2000
Open in XP

And make sure the path points to the correct version of access.

Cheers

Stuart
