How to create a Executable application

[hashimq]

I am using MS Access to develop a DB application for one of my clients. Now I want to give it my client in a form of .exe file in which he can only use the menubar I have designed. I dont want him to see the MS Access toolbars

An Access database cannot be made into an .exe file. The closest you can get might be compiling it into an .mde file. This would lock down your forms and VBA code modules and prevent changes, however the users are still likely to know they are using Access unless you get fancy with hiding the DB window and such.

You could use Access as the back-end and design a front-end in VB or another language of your choosing then compile your front-end into an .exe file.
