converting ade files

[Guest]

I have an .ade file for an Access 2003 application but no .adp file. Is
there any way to convert or copy an .ade file to an .adp file? If not, is
there a less direct way to do it short of rewriting the application?

Thank you!

No way to convert *.ade back to *adp. Re-writing whole thing is the only way
to update/change an *.ade application. But, I'd not invest on MS Access ADP
any more: it is dead technology for new development.

I was afraid of that, but thank you for confirming!
