Hi, Armen.
Thanks so much for the relinker. It worked like a charm. I just have one
more question. I feel a bit like Columbo who says 'There was just this one
other matter..."
I split the database and made the install package with the developer
extensions. I do encounter one problem and I just want to know if that is
part of the runtime version of Access. When a user is am using the front end
with the runtime version of Access. and a linked back-end, they seem to have
no filtering options. They can't click into a field which displays data they
are looking for , eg, the name of a State, and then right click and choose
filter by selection. There seem to be no filtering options available in the
runtime version of Access. Is this true? (I'm also going to post this as a
separate question in the event that having said my question was answered, you
no longer get messages as to new comments on the thread. Thank you again for
your help.

Hi Mary,
This may have been answered in your other thread, but it sounds like
you have Shortcut Menus (the official name for Right-Click Menus)
turned off in your Startup Options. The runtime doesn't prevent them
from working.

Thank you so much. I will try and research how to adjust the Startup Options
in the Runtime version. Somebody should write a small book on the runtime
edition. It would be a great help!
Thank you so much.

You can just set the Startup Options in the MDB, then create the MDE
and distribute it. The MDE will retain those options.
We usually don't bother to change the Startup Options in the MDE. We
set them in the MDB and then bypass them during development using the
Shift key on launch.
