MDE Conversion Question

D

DMc2003

What I would like to know is the following:

1) When I convert a database to a MDE file can it be
converted back to a MDB.

2) Can users view the objects within the database?

3) Can users create another database and import the
objects within the MDE file.

Mainly I am concerned about setting something up and
having users trying to do changes and saving it to there
system.

The database is going to be part of a split database.

Any suggestions or comments would be useful.

No

2) Can users view the objects within the database?

Yes, but code-based objects (forms, report, modules) cannot be viewed in
design view
3) Can users create another database and import the
objects within the MDE file.

Yes, but only macros, queries, and tables. Code-based objects cannot be
imported.
