Earlier versions of Access (such as Access 97, but I don't remember about
Access 95) listed the default Add-ins (Database Splitter, Linked Table
Manager, Switchboard Manager and Upsizing Wizard), in the "Add-ins" menu
item on the Tools menu. Access 2K and later have these default Add-ins
listed in the Tools menu -> Database Utilities. The Tools menu -> Add-ins
item is now for user-defined Add-ins, so if you haven't added any Add-ins to
your computer, there won't be any Add-in names listed here.
Add-ins can be MDA, MDE, and even MDB files. The major difference between a
regular database file and an Add-in database is that the Add-in includes a
special system table that the Add-in Manager can read and then store these
values in the Windows Registry, so that the database can be used as an
Add-in with other Access databases. During the process of creating the
Add-in, the Add-in Manager registers the Add-in in the Windows Registry and
copies the Add-in database file to the default Access Add-in folder.
HTH.
