It's just a file... make sure everyone's logged out, Then send it to your
boss. You may have to ZIP it first, because some settings on some e-mail
clients will not allow MDB, MDE, ACCDB, ACCDE to be received.

If he wants to use it to update the same database, then he'll need to use
Linked Tabe Manage to link/relink the tables, if he's on the same LAN.
Otherwise, there are additonal considerations. If it uses a server database
for back end, then some other steps will be required.
