You cannot. Access does not support this capability.

For forms and reports, yes, you must have Access installed.

If all you want is to be able to get at the data in the tables, you can
extract it using any ODBC-compliant application (such as Excel).

That is correct.

You can purchase "Visual Studio for Office Extensions" - or whatever
Microsoft is calling it this week - to get a license-free runtime
version of Access which you can distribute with your database; but you
do need *some* form of Access.
