| Microsoft Access 2007/2010 Compiled Execute Only Format | Microsoft | Database Files |
The ACCDE file extension defines an Microsoft Access database file saved in an executable only mode. This format prevents users from view or edit the design of objects such as queries, forms and reports. The main goal of ACCDE files is to prevent unauthorized modification of Microsoft Access databases. The typical ACCDE format is used when a database application needs to be distributed to multiple users who will only need to run, but not modify the database objects.
Technical Specification
ACCDE files are created by automatically compiling of all source code used in the forms, reports, macros and modules stored in an Access database into a single executable file. To do this, the Access makes use of the Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) programming language which appropriately compiles source code into machine language.
ACCDE files can be opened and executed using Open Database Connectivity (ODBC), ActiveX Data Object (ADO) or with command line switches as parameters. It’s possible to convert several Microsoft Access related file formats to ACCDE, such as .accdb, .accde
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .ACCDE) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .ACCDE extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .ACCDE file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .ACCDE extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .ACCDE extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .ACCDE file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .ACCDE file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .ACCDE file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .ACCDE file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .ACCDE file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
