[AccessD] Can a .VBS fire up a .ACCDR?

Below is the code in the VBS Script. 

Sorry, I should have posted this when I first posted the question.

Brad

'~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

DIM accessApp

set accessApp = createObject("Access.Application")

accessApp.OpenCurrentDataBase("C:\Access_Test\Test.accdr")

accessApp.Run "Sub_Name"  'Name of VBA Sub to initiate within the
database  

accessApp.Quit 

set accessApp = nothing

'~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Possibly you should change your script to use the command line constants
to
open the .accdb file in runtime mode. I have not done in 2007 but have
done
in earlier versions. Access 2007 continually amazes me with what doesn't
work as it is supposed to.

Yes, Access lives on the machine.

Here is what we did...

Copied test.accdb to test.accdr (in the same folder)

Changed one byte in the .VBS Script to point at test.accdr rather than
test.accdb

Everything works fine with the accdb file, but not so with the accdr
file.

Does Access exist on the machine? ACCDR just opens the file in runtime
mode
as I understand.

We have a number of .VBS scripts that we use to initiate various modules
in
Access 2007 .ACCDB files.  This works nicely.

Now we would like to use a .VBS to initiate a .ACCDR.

Is this possible?

When we try this, we receive an error message stating that Microsoft
Access
cannot find the database.

This seems like it should be really simple.  We must be missing
something.

Thanks,
Brad
