From: Nick 'The Database Guy' on 20 May 2010 12:29 Hi People everywhere, Is it possible to create a MDE file in code so that a 'power user' can create it as and when the application is upgraded. If so how? My thanks go out to all those people who are willing to consider this. Nick
From: Douglas J. Steele on 20 May 2010 12:47 There is an undocumented way to do it (sorry, I don't remember the details off the top of my head), but I have to question why you'd need to do this. If your application is split into a front-end/back-end like it should be, all you should need do is send a new copy of the front-end MDE. -- Doug Steele, Microsoft Access MVP http://www.AccessMVP.com/DJSteele (no e-mails, please!)
