Just created database in Access and would like to take it a step further to make it into a program using MDE. I understand that it would be almost a runtime -> Does it mean that Access would not be necessary on the target computer?

Also how would I ensure that all the libraries would be present ? For example, I have one library - the common Dialog control. I am not certain whether it is present on the target computer. What do I have to write to make sure that it is properly installed if necessary ?

I would greatly appreciate anyone responding to this.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Making an Access file MDE just removes the text view of the Code (leaving the binary behind) This reduces the space the Access File takes up.

To make sure that everything you need is loaded to Client PC's you should use an installation program such as the Developer's Toolkit. This will install the runtime version of Access if needed and any libraries/references that are needed to run your application.
