An MS Access DB isn't the same as a VB .EXE file.

MS Access uses a specialized version of VB known as VBA. It's different enough it's recognized as it's own language (as is VBE (Visual Basic Excel).



You can get a program called ';Access Runtime'; from Micorsoft that will allow an Access DB to run without having MS Access installed, but It's not actually a conversion to VB. And Microsoft also offers an program that CONVERTS an MS Access DB to an SQL-Server DB program so upgrades are easier.

I don't know if there is an actual converter for VBA code to VB code. If you did convert it you would STILL need to have the VB Developer files and Runtime environment installed before it would run.



Try looking up the ';Access Runtime'; program download at Microsoft's support site.After creating database program in vb using MS access how to make it independent of MS access?
