Hi,

I'm not sure what the cause of this is but I am recently getting the
following error message when attempting to create an MDE file from my
database:

"Microsoft Access was unable to create an MDE database."

When I click the attached help button the message refers to issues with
Access not being able to create MDE files when the database is extremely
large with a great many tables. The issue however is that my database is not
extremely large. It has one table with about 3,500 records, but those records
are linked to the back-end file. Also a week ago I created MDE files from
this same database without problems. While I've been working on a new form
this past week that hasn't added a large amount of data to the file.

Plus the error message really offers little info that would help to fix the
situation.

Any thoughts?

Many thanks,
David
 
Make sure that your code is compiled. Do a Ctrl + G . Next go to Debug then
Compile. Fix any errors and try again.
