I already have my database created, but I want to copy it
so I can use that database for another company. How can I
do that? Any help would be great.
Thanks,
Kristen

You're asking how to copy a file?

Open Windows Explorer, find your file, drag it somewhere else while right-clicking
and select "Copy Here" from the list of choices.
or
Drag while left-clicking and hold <Control> when you release it.
or
Right-click on file and choose "Copy" then right-click in a different folder and
select "Paste".
or
Open a command window and type Copy "old path" "new path".
or
Open Access without opening a file and then use the compact utility to compact "from"
the file in question, but "to" a different location or file name than the original.
 
If it's self-contained (developed in Access with no
external links) then you just need to locate the database
file (.mdb) and copy it.
