By definition, the MDE lacks the text version of the code, so you cannot
convert it back into an MDB because the text is missing.
You can create a new database and import all the tables and queries. There
have been some utilities around that let you import the forms and report
*without* their code, but you cannot recreate the code because it is not
there.

Is there a way of being able to convert an mde file back to the original
mdb status. Unfortunately the original mdb file was lost a number of years
ago and changes now need to be made to the access database.
