Its been a while since I used Access2k developer - I'm afraid I switched to
Delphi, the following link should provide some guidance;
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/modcore/html/deovrdeployingaccesssolutions.asp
To the best of my recollection the deployment wizard/package is not able to
determine what other files are required to be deployed on a particular
system. The suggestion been that you should include them all.
Whilst I developed db's using Delphi and the Access mdb I used a specific
installer application (Installshield), this had the ability to interrogate
the target sys and install only the extra files/apps required, on the
specific system.
For further help you might want to post to one of the
msnews.microsoft.public.access newsgroups
