How can I email an Access 2003 database?

Is it possible to email an Access 2003 database as an email attachment
without having it corrupted in the transmission? Will all the tables,
queries, forms, reports, etc., be transmitted without change to them in the
process? The program for email is Outlook.

Thank you for your response

I've never heard of e-mailing causing problems. However, be aware that many
servers are set up not to accept MDB files as attachments. The recommended
practise is to rename the MDB to some other "benign" extension, and to zip
it up (zipping a MDB file will usually significantly reduce its size)

Douglas,

Thank you so much; we thought that this might be the problem. Your solution
should work.
