I appreciate if any body can tell me if there is a way to compile MS Access 97 in order to prodocuce a stand alone file "exe".

Access Developer Edition does this with it's own VB-like compiler and Application SetupWizard.

You'll need the developper edition of your office suite. Here are tools to produce a runtime version of your access 97 product. With this you can install your application on a stand alone PC without installing MS Access first.

The licensing is the developpers responsability (yours). When you purchase the developpers edition you also aquire the licence to ship an unlimited amount of runtime variants of your access applications.

Kind regards,

There's a program called AccessToVB which converts Access code to Visual Basic code. I don't think it compiles to a .exe though which means you'd need a copy of VB to do the compiling.
In addition, if you use macros or docmd I don't know if this is supported.
You could look it up on google if you think it might be what you want.
