Hi, Is it possible to open an access database from Excel that has the file extension .accde
 

Excel Facts

Ambidextrous Undo
Undo last command with Ctrl+Z or Alt+Backspace. If you use the Undo icon in the QAT, open the drop-down arrow to undo up to 100 steps.
Hi Joe4, Yes I have tried these but I get Runtime error 429 ActiveX component can't create object, I think it is because I don't have full access, only runtime access

Thanks joe4, This will open the Access Runtime .accde database, How would I get it to open in Maximized Focus?
Code:
CreateObject("WScript.Shell").Run ("""C:\Database.accde""")
