I have a front end that has exceeded its no. of objects (2000) as i cannot
make mde out of it. What i plan to do is rmove some functions from the file
and put it into another mde file which would be called fron the first
front-end. How can I do this ?

Are you certain that is the reason you cannot make an MDE?

Try decompiling the mdb, then recompiling it. What I have generally found
in the past is that the reason my efforts to make an mde file failed was
entirely due to a failure to compile correctly. Could be something as simple
as a missing reference, a missing function, or an undeclared variable.

You can certainly create an Access "Library" .mda file... but the suggestion
to decompile is certainly apropos.

Is this in fact such a monstrously complicated application? What are all these
objects? Is it a split database (tables in the backend, forms, reports,
queries and code in the frontend, a different copy of the frontend for each
user)? If not it certainly should be.
