I receive Access MDB files by email. I also use Zone Alarm firewall which is set to quarenteen files with MDB extensiosn. The quarenteened file has extension .ZLH. I can load the file ok but after I make changes, how can I save it under a different name and in the mdb format. The file menu save as only lets me save forms, tables,reports etc. I want to save the composite MDB as another name.

I searched the forum for "save mdb file" but no answer to my question.

Even if I take the protection off , I still want to save the MDB file as another name .e.g. Test Rev 7 21.mdb

Thanks
 
You can't save the database under another name whilst it is still open as far as I know, so the only alternative I can think of is to import the entire DB and relationships into an empty shell or rename the file to reclaim the mdb extension. Such a task would be accomplished by:

Name file.zlh as file.mdb

Although it won't let you do that from file.zlh as it is open.
