newphpcoder Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Good day!I created a database using MS Access 2003 and I want it make to MDE file but when I click the Make MDE File I got the pop up message like this:You cannot create a Microsoft Offiece Access ADE or MDe file from a database saved in Microsoft Office Access - 2000 formatConvert the database to the current version of Microsoft Office Access. Then create the ADE or MDE File.When I check the Tools>Database Utilities>Convert Database>To Access 2000 File Format it was disable or grey out. I don't know why:confused:What should I do? or what configuration I need to do?Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justsomeguy Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 You don't want to convert to Access 2000, you want to convert from Access 2000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newphpcoder Posted November 4, 2010 Author Share Posted November 4, 2010 Is it possible that the switchboard could be executable? I want to happen be no need to open the ms access to view the forms. Only the switchboard form would be executed. I read some forums that I need the Microsoft Access Runtime and I'm not familiar with it.I already install Microsoft Acess Runtime and honestly I don't know what is the use of itThank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justsomeguy Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 I'm not really sure what you're asking, I don't know what you mean by switchboard. If you want to send someone the database and have them use it without Access installed, the runtime should let them do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synook Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 A "switchboard", I believe, is a form with lots of buttons on it, each button opening another form, or a report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
