Can you run a Access database on a computer if you DONT have Acces
 
Is it possible to distribute an application if the end user does not have
Microsoft Office or must they purchase Office Pro.

Hi,

You might want to post to the Access Newsgroup:

There are also Run-Time versions of Access (but I'm not sure what versions
of Access have this option): Take a look he

Virtually all modern computers have the Access database engine (it is called
Jet) installed, so if the user has Excel they can read/write a Jet database
(.mdb), but they cannot use the ACCESS end-user stuff to build queries and
forms etc.
