The ACCDR file extension is a type of file used by certain Microsoft Office programs, mainly Access Runtime. It stands for Access “runtime” DRiver and it is used to help open, run, or edit a database, form, or report created as an application.
Technical Details
The ACCDR format is similar in design to the common ACCDB file type, and some applications (like Microsoft Access) can open an ACCDR file the same way it does an ACCDB file. When compared to an ACCDB, the features of an ACCDR are more limited; users are unable to create new documents from scratch, and modules containing custom Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) code cannot be included without compiling them into a separate MDE ( MDE) or ADE ( ADE) files.
The ACCDR file contains a compressed version of the different objects making up an Access file: tables, fields, queries, forms, reports, macros, VBA code modules and other elements. If enabled, this feature also supports the inclusion of active content components such as ActiveX controls or web browser resources. Furthermore, unlike an ACCDB file, an ACCDR can be globally locked with a password which protects it from being copied, printed, or any other kind of modification.
Similar file extensions related to this type of data include ACCDB, MDE, and ADE.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .ACCDR) 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 .ACCDR 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 .ACCDR 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 .ACCDR 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 .ACCDR extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .ACCDR file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .ACCDR 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 .ACCDR file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .ACCDR file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .ACCDR file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
