Converting a MDE ACCESS DB to a MDB ACESS DB

[jaggar]

I am having problems in changing an access data base from MDE to a MDB. Do anyones out there know or have instructions on how to perform this task? Also once I have made my changes in the MDB data base I will need the instructions to change the MDB data base back to the MDE data base.


Thanks,
Jaggar

You can create a MDE from a MDB but you can't go the other way. You need to look for the original MDB that was used to create your MDE.

There are companies that claim to be able to convert MDEs to MDBs. From what I have heard, some do a fairly decent job of this but I expect it is spendy.
