All,
Does anyone know how to create self-installing Access programs. I am
currently working on a database which would look a lot more professional
if I could install it via an installation program. I know it can be done
as my predecessor had distributed databases in this manner, which
obviously makes the whole operation less painful.
Thanks in advance for any advice,
Mark.

You need the Developer Edition of Microsoft Office.

Another quick fix is to make a winzip self-extracting file. You can
download a trial copy from WINZIP web site, or get from TuCOWS.com or
DOWNLOAD.com. The user double clicks and the files are installed. You can
also use command line switches to automatically start or run other programs.

You need the Developer Edition of Microsoft Office
http://www.microsoft.com/office/developer/tour.htm
OR
Dedicated installation program such as InstallShield.
