Yes, that is correct. You got some great advice here from other posters. As
I mentioned, you do want to split the ms-access into two parts, and you
don't need to re-write any code to do this. This split approach thus gives
you a development environment where you have the program part, and a data
file part (just live VB, or most systems).

You can read about splitting here:
