In order to package and deploy Access databases for use by others who do not
have a full copy of Access, your manager would need to own Office XP
Developer. This would enable her to distribute databases and all of the
supporting files needed to open and run them, but not make design changes or
create new databases. You indicate that she already has a copy of Office XP
Professional; however, the "developer tools" are not available for separate
purchase.

If you already have a licensed copy of Microsoft Office 2000 Developer, you
can download Access 2000 Run-Time Minimum (Art2kmin.exe). Here is a link
with more info about Art2KMin.exe:
