    Error Message " Microsoft Access was unable to create an MDE Database"

    Hi friends,

    I am facing an issue while creating an MDE Database.Running it isolated as an MDB database, the application runs perfectly. But I am unable to create any MDE database as this operation fails with the message:"Microsoft Access was unable to create an MDE Database" .

    Can anyone help me out with this issue.

    Try to use lightweight forms and reports whenever possible, or reduce the number of objects in the database, i hope this would slow you problem.

    Open the VBA code editor window and compile your project. Most likely you have some bad code and that should show you where it is so you can fix it. Once the project compiles without errors then you should be able to make an MDE.

    I was also getting same error message I think that a code error will stop the creation of an MDE file so it may be worth opening any module and then selecting Debug>Compile and Save All Modules

    To check if there is a problem in code or not.
