I have been creating Databases for a company in MS Access 2002 and wanted to know if I can put the database on a CD and develop a setup program to install it on its own similar to all software you purchase. Any direction or help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Carl

There are many possibilities for doing this...from an expensive professional installer package to a simple .bat file (probably the simplest solution).

If you want an installer, though...take a look here:

Microsoft has the Microsoft Office Developer to create customized Access applications (or applications in any other Office program). Using this tool you can make an Access database/program that will run without Access on a machine, and copy it ontoCDs to distribute.
