Hello everyone...
I was wondering: is there a way to make my Access Databases available to other people without MS Access on their computers? If there is please let me know. I really need to do this and I've trying for at least three weeks to look for an alternative and Have had not luck whatsoever. I have everything done in Access 2000. If anyone can help, please do...:)
 
You need the Office developers edition which has the tools necessary to make an executable file. Never have done it myself so I cannot really give you any more info.

Good Luck
 
I have never made an executable from access so i can't help you there either.

As far as I knew the Access Runtime needs to be installed on the client computers.

I found this somewhere else:

If you want to distribute your Access applications to users that don't own Access, you'll need to purchase the Office Developer's Edition (ODE). It will create a distribution of your database and will include the necessary run-time components of Access that your end-users will need to run your application.
