Re: Different version Access

so in this case, I will have my first MDB in 2000 and then follow your steps
in the 2003 version and save it in 2003 version. Then I will make 2003
version MDE and distrube 2003 MDE to 2003 users. Is that correct? It seems
like too many MDB and MDE copies and my database might corrupt anytime with
all the different versions going on at work. What is the best way to solve
this problem?

Thanks!

I prefer to open a Command prompt, and paste it in there.
I also keep a little text document on my desktop containing most of that
command so I don't have to type the whole thing every time.

Libraries are code-add-ins that provide additional functionality. You can
create your own COM object programmed in C or some other language if you
wish, and add it in. Nice idea, but since any one missing library prevents
any code from running, they are actually a royal pain to manage, and a good
way to break your database.

If your Access database has an extra library (beyond the 3 basic ones) and
you don't know what it's for:
1. Open a code window, and verify that it compiles (Debug | Compile.)
2. Go to Tools | References, write down the name of the spurious library,
and uncheck it.
3. Compile again (Step 1.)
If it compiles after the library is unchecked, you probably don't need it.

Your link helped me to get rid of that "Can't find project or library"
message yesterday; it was very helpful. Thank you so much!!!!

before,
so please help me to explain it in a simple language if possible.
