<br><br>In Access 97+ you'll want to make an '.mde' file from your '.mdb', this is a compiled version of the mdb. Once done the code in the module is no longer accessable.<br><br>You'll want to run the repair and compact before you 'Make MDE File'.<br><br>Have Fun.<br><br><br> <p>Amiel<br><a href=mailto:amielzz@netscape.net>amielzz@netscape.net</a><br><a href= > </a><br>
pvg, be sure to save the original .mdb if you do this! In case it's not obvious, you can't makechanges to compiled code ( the .mde). So when you want to modify the app, you make the changes to your original .mdb (and then save THAT), and convert the updated .mdb to an .mde again.<br><br>BTW, amiel, I had a significant slowdown when I made a similar conversion. Have you noticed performance differences between .mdb, .mde, and the executable version? I'm planning to try the package and deployment wizard for the first time today.
