Toukey,

Depending on the requirements, were I to have a need to fiddle with an mde file when I didn't have its source, I'd first look at pulling the needed data into Excel where it could be manipulated at will. Then, once done, Excel ought to be able to update or add rows to tables in the mde file since data manipulation is readily permitted.

There's no reason why Excel can't throw up forms that are populated via the Access mde file. This isn't hard, once done. I frequently do it for clients when they want Excel's greater data analysis capabilities for their Access data.

Hi John,

I thought that I would have access to VBA in an mde so I copied the code from another database and thought that I could use it. Is there a way to get a macro to do what the code is doing?

Toukey-

If you inherited an mde, where did you get the code? You can't define a macro in an mde, either.

Yes, it would be possible to convert to a macro, but why?

End If

End Sub
