both at work and in my laptop has access 2010.
I don't have any problem in the microsoft access.
the problem is the database at work putted at PCs networked and when I take a copy of this data from the source doesn't work outside in any laptop because I tried with 2 laptop but in vain (may be the person who's create this data protect them ?? ).

Did you try this?

Related to item #3, if you open a Windows Explorer window on your computer, are you able to browse to the folder where the Access database resides? If so, what happens if you double-click on it from there?

If so, what happened?

Are you able to browse to this "TNG EQ" directory?

at home in my laptop I don't have access to the database source !!

at home in my laptop I don't have access to the database source !!

I thought you had said that there was no external connections or linked tables?
If there are external data sources that you cannot link to from your current location, that is your problem right there.

One other thing that has been brought to my attention. Are you dealing with a split database? A split database will have a front-end linked to a separate back-end. If the front-end is unable to access where the back-end is located, you obviously will have issues.

It does sound like linked tables in the database, which won't work on a laptop at home if you can't access the linked locations.
