Access database without Access installed?

[maltid]

I've made an application in Access and I wonder if others can use it even if they don't have Access installed? Of course not you say, but I mean: are there any program or anything eg like Power Point Viewer that they can use som they can use my application whitout installing Access??

Sorry for my bad, bad english..........

Thanks

This is possible by buying additional MS Access Developer Software, which enables you to create "Runtime" versions of your databases for distribution to users who do not have copies of Access installed on their machine

 

[ghudson]

The "Developers Extensions" package for Office 2003 allows you to distribute royalty free "runtime" versions of Access 2003. That would enable users without Access 2003 to install the free "runtime" versions of Access 2003 and they could use your database file with their runtime version of Access 2003.
