    As Ben notes you can't. Because an MDB file is both the data AND the interface, there is no compiler available.

    If you want to distribute your Access app to people who don't have Access, you need the developer extensions. These are free for Access 2007, but for earlier version you have to purchase the Developer edition of Office.

    If you just want to protect your code, you can convert to an MDE file.
