When I use Microsoft Access 2000 to create an MDE database from an MDB database, I get an error message: "Microsoft Access was unable to create an MDE database".
Important Some restrictions may prevent you from saving your Access database as an MDE file:
If your Access database is secured with user-level security, you must meet certain criteria. Learn about using other forms of security with an Access database that is saved as an MDE file.
You must have password access to the Visual Basic code. Learn about protecting Visual Basic code.
If your database is replicated, you must first remove replication system tables and properties.
If your Access database references another Access database, or add-in, you must save all Access databases or add-ins in the chain of references as MDE files.
