Dan, No, deploying Access 2003 Runtime is not that easy! My humble apologies, I think I misunderstood you - I somehow made an assumption you were talking about Access 2007 Runtime. Sorry, I use SageKey for Access 2003 installations. I can certainly understand not wanting to buy it just for 1 site! I don't think it would be in breach of any licensing terms for you to sub-contract the preparation of a SageKey install to someone (no, I'm not offering personally :-) ) who has the wherewithal. An alternative is to have a look at Inno installer, which I think is free. I have no experience with it, but my friend Albert Kallal swears by them for Access Runtime installations. Do a Google search on "Albert Kallal Inno" and you'll find some of his comments. Somewhere he has posted some sample scripts, but I just can't put my finger on at the moment - maybe you will find them.
