Running Access macro from vbscript on a non-MS Office computer

N

NowItsWhatever

I schedule a vbscript that runs an MS Access macro. Currently it runs on a computer (workstation) that has MS Office installed. I would like to schedule this to run on another computer (server) that does not have MS Office installed. Do I need to install the entire MS Office suite on the server or can I install just part (MS Access only, or maybe just some supporting libraries)? TIA.

Installing just Access will install whatever other parts of Office are
required for Access to run.

And yes, you must install Access in order to be able to automate Access
(which is what you're doing through VBScript)
