Smith and Sussman say about MDE
1. It is NOT an executable file
2. It DOES contain a copy of ALL the database objects EXCEPT modeules. They are compiled in the source database and then transfers them to the target database.
Access MDE files will NOT run as standalone applications precisely as Tanus says.
However I have never tried to do so and have a tendency to investigate despite compelling statements from experts (which I must declare I am not). So many times I have found thast many who are more expert than I simply quote and have not tried.
This is not to be takrvn as a knock at experts but encouragement to novices to try for themselves.
