Re decompiling: you can also set up a context menu option:

In Win XP 

	open an Explorer window. On the Folder menu select "Folder Options"
	select the File Types tab and locate and select the .MDB file type
	click the 'Advanced' button, there click the 'New' button.
	The 'New Action' dialog appears. Type a name for the new action:
"decompile"
	enter the command line exactly as shown below, including and double
quotes...

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\MSACCESS.EXE"  "%1" /decompile

	make sure the "Use DDE" checkbox is cleared.

You can now decompile any MDB from a right-click on the file. Of course you
still have to keep backups in case your use of the semi-documented
/decompile switch goes awry.

unfortunately, that sounds very familiar!

1. Decompile - I keep a shortcut on hand at all time: "C:\Program
Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\MSACCESS.EXE" /decompile
