I've inherited an Access 2000 application which involves
both front and backend linked databases.  On the front end
is a main application database with forms, reports, and
some local tables.  A second front end database is for
utilities (a library database) and is composed only of
modules.

I can examine the code and objects in the utility database
by double clicking on the .MDB file while depressing the
shift key and selecting TOOLS/MACRO/Visual Basic EDITOR
from the toolbar.  On "Return to MS Access" with Alt-Q, I
have only File, Window, and Help menus (and these are
pretty sparse) and not the Tools/Database Utilities/Make
MDE File menus and option normally used to create an MDE
file.

My question is, how do I make an MDE file from this
utility MDB?

I appreciate any help anyone my be able to provide.

Sounds almost like the library mdb is using it's own toolbars etc.?  See if
you can right-click on the toolbar and bring up the db toolbar...

Thanks for the response, Dev.  Unfortunately, a right
click on the toolbar has no effect.

toolbars etc.?  See if

Try it from the debug window then...

SysCmd 603, PathToSourceMDB, PathToDestinationMDB

  -- Dev

Can you get to Tools/Startup ?

If so that might be where you need to enable making changes to the toolbar
since you can not right click on it and get to Customize.
