If you will search previous posts on the topic, I believe you will find that
you can't create an EXE from a database. You can (if you purchase the
developer's edition) distribute a run-time version of Access with your
database, but you can't create an EXE.

I hope you have noted the informative postings to this question where you
have posted it elsewhere. This person shows up from time to time to base
Access. He is quite ignorant.
By the way, you have posted several variants of this question in multiple
groups. Cross-post (one message to several groups) if you must, but avoid
multi-posting (separate, identical messages to several groups). Also, while
answers often arrive within minutes or hours, wait at least a day before
reposting a question. If you decide to re-post, consider changing the
wording so that the question is clearer.

huh?

was this feature not promised to us?

the ability to develop a prototype in Access and then open it with
Visual Studio in order to build it into a real application?

Because I sure remember MS announcing that.. and YET AGAIN failing to
deliver

Easier to extend Access apps with Visual Studio - despite our best
efforts, Access will not offer all the power of Visual Studio, and for
some tasks developers will want to use VS. We believe a key part of
the strategy needs to be to make it easy for VS developers to extend
Access apps without having to re-write them. Office 12 does this to
some extent (e.g. workflows written in the SharePoint Designer can be
easily edited in VS), but there is clearly more to do here.


I do believe that this was worded a little bit stronger somewhere
else; I'll find it
