Command-Line startup options

Topic

New Reply

I’m looking for the command-line option to start an Access 97 database in a simulated run-time environment – using Full-version Access. I can’t manage to find the switch in the help files anywhere!
I think it is /RUNTIME but I’m not sure.

Any help is appreciated.
Many thanks,

DOH!! I kept playing around with it and found the answer to my own question.

The /RUNTIME switch is correct for starting Access in Runtime only environment. But apparently you need to have Office Developer installed for this to work properly (I think).
I have Office Developer 2000, but not 97 – which is the format of the database I was testing.

I guess I’ll convert it to 2000 just to make sure it runs under the run-time environment.

Thanks for taking time to read this rhetorical and somewhat confusing post.
