MDE Files

[Johnkl]

If in any case you loose your original database and you only have your mde file instead, how can you unlock the mde file??

Thanks

DON'T lose the original!!!

You can recover some elements from an MDE file but not forms and any coding.

I believe he's right.

The MDE file isn't locked. It's supposed to be compiled, lacking all the text and editing data which would allow you to work on the DB.
