Create Access Stand alone applications ( with runtime)

[marc pouliot]

I used to be able to create stand alone applications with previous versions
of Access.
Is this still possible with Access 2002 ou 2003 ? I looked for this quite a
bit, I did not find anything.


I proposed a solution to a customer based on previous development, if this
is ot possible, are there other ways to publish applications (Access) with a
runtime ??

Thank you
feeling bad...

The runtime for Access is sold with the "Microsoft Studio Tools for the
Microsoft Office System 2003" package or with an MSDN subscription.

In your case, it might also be a good idea to look at the scripts from
Sagekey (http://www.sagekey.com/) for an easier installation. They are not
free but they may save you a lot of time; especially in the case of Access
2003.

Your best option is to get Office XP Developer and use its Packaging Wizard
to create a setup package that will install your Access program as wellas the
Access2002 Runtime system.
