Application with database distribution freely?

[Ravi]

Hi,

I require some information about Access. At present we are
asked to work with Visual Basic application and MS-Access.
What i want to know is whether i can bundle the
application with the database created and distribute
freely?

You can freely distribute your mdb / mde file. The users
will need Access installed on their PCs to use your mdb /
mde file.

PMFJI here just to clarify things. If he is using a VB program to
update/append/delete from the MDB then he doesn't need Access. If he
is distributing an Access MDB containing queries, forms, reports or
modules then yes I would agree with you.
