I've read through lots of postings and haven't seen the answer yet so I
thought I'd ask --
I have a reasonably large Access 2003 application (about 65 MB) that I want
to convert into an MDE so that I can later convert to a run-time app. The
problem is that I get the following message:
This error is usually associated with compiling a large database into an MDE
file. Due to the method used to compile the database, a considerable number
of TableID references are created for each table. The Microsoft Jet database
engine version 4.0 can only create a maximum of 2048 open TableIDs at one
time. Exporting a database as an MDE potentially can exceed this limit if
the database has a large number of objects (table, macro, form, report, etc).
I don't have all that many tables but I do have a LOT of macros (I don't
know VB so I have done everything with macros) [sigh!]
I assume that I have to convert all the macros to VB. My first question is:
do I have to convert/compile all these macros one at a time?
My second question is: once they are converted, can I still see them like
macros or am I then forced to learn VB so I can modify them that way.
My third question is: If I'm going to be creating a stand-alone run-time
version with the Access 2003 Developer Extensions, do I have to create the
MDE first?
TIA for any assistance I can get on this!
