Microsoft Access was unable to create an .mde database

[rodrunner79]

Hi guys,

I'm trying to create a .mde file for my application (database) but I'm getting this error saying "Microsoft Access was unable to create an .mde database". What is causing this? And what can I do to resolve it? Help please.

Does your database compiles properly ?
When in VBE (Alt+F11) menu Debug -> Compile ...

Hope This Helps, PH.

If your database is linked to any other database you need to complie all those databases too, and FYI none of the database should have any sort of errors. Even One small error, you will not be able to create .mde.

Thanks

Hey guys thanks for the responses. Ok, I followed you guys instructions and it seems like there were errors on some of the mods I had. I made the corrections and re-compiled the DB's and they are now working. Thanks again!
