The only way is to first convert your database to the Access 2002 file format. You probably have
the default setting of Access 2000 file format. Use:

Tools > Database Utilities > Convert Database > To 2002 File Format...
to convert your database. Of course, as soon as you do this, the database cannot be used by
anyone with Access 2000. If you need to create a .MDE file that Access 2000 users can open, then
use a PC that has Access 2000 installed on it to create the .MDE.

To create a .MDE file, you must meet two requirements:

1.) The database file format is converted to match the Access version and
2.) Any VBA code in your database must compile without any errors.

To check your VBA code, press Ctrl G to open the Visual Basic editor. Then click on:
Debug > Compile Database name

Hi Kashif,

If the existing .mdb file is in Access 2000 format you won't be able to
create a .mde file. You must first convert it to Access 2002 format.

In English-language installations, see the help topic "Secure Visual
Basic for Applications code in Access databases".
