I am wanting to write an Access Database and then package it so that it can run on computers that do not have MS Access installed? I have heard of a Package and Deployment Wizard located as an add-in in the Office XP Developer Tools software, but this is a very expensive software. Is there any way to get this Package and Deployment Wizard without having to purchase the entire software package? Also, is there any other way to do this besides this wizard?
Thank you for your help.

Are you use ODBC to access the database from your homemade application and the database is instaled on the lokal computer.
Then the client only need to have ODBCJT32.DLL installed.
Create a DNS with the install program or include it in the application.
