For some reason this doesnt work for me.
It tells me that the locations doesnt exist.

The first part:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\MSAccess.exe"
is the location of your Access executable file (Access.exe). It may be in a
differenet location than the one in the example.

The second part:
"C:\MyApp\MyApp_FE.mdb"
is the location of the database file you want to open.

The switch:
/wrkgrp "E:\Myapp.mdw"
is the location of the workgroup file.

For all of these, use the actual locations of the files on your computer

Note that if you have Access 2007 you need to use the Access 2003 file format.
