MS Access Runtime - save location??

[jamiesuperman420]

Hello... I need to install Runtime on my machines, which is no problem. What IS the problem is tying it in with the security file.

As you know, when you use the security wizard it creates a shortcut that links the password file with the database file with MS Access. Typically it links it to access.exe but since I don't have it - I don't know what to put in that space.

I checked all over the computer and can't find any .exe files that were modified today... Does anybody know how or where Access Runtime is saved?? Under "Add / Remove Programs" in Control Panel, it IS listed, and other Access programs open fine - just not the security shortcut, conveniently.

Thank you!!

For anyone else who has this problem, I think I figured it out:

Before installing MS Access Runtime there is NO MS Access file on the computer... AFTER installing it, one shows up in the Office12 folder under Programs/MS Office/ folder... What's strange is that it SAYS it was last modified back in 2008, even though it just shows up today.

In any case, references that as your .exe files get it to work easy breezy!! You don't need the /runtime command either, it seems that file IS the runtime.
