It's a little different for different versions of Access. For '97 you need to buy the MS Office Professional Developers edition. This allows you to package a database with a runtime only version of access.
(This is a real hack tohough, if you install one of these on a machine that also has the full version of Access you will break their Access since the runtime is simply a patched version of the fiull package and installs on top of the full package..)
If you're trying to write a distrutable "commersial" typ of application you should re-do the whole thing in VB and complile it.
