Is there a way to turn a MS Access data base into a stand along application with VSTO without having to code anything
I remember there used to be an old Developer Tools for Office long time ago that would do this.
Thanks

So, if we create an access application or form it can be deployed without having Access download on client's computer I want to deploy Access forms or Infopath forms to clients computer as they don't have Infopath or Access. Do I have to include MOD(Microsoft Office Developer Package) and PDW(Package and deployment wizard) in the same folder of my Access file OR do I have to keep Msaccess.exe in the same directory
Thanks in advance for help.

You'll still need to get your Access solution along with the Access runtime onto your clients machines - your solution won't run if the user doesn't have the Access runtime installed. It's up to you whether you want to use the packaging wizard or some other method of getting these bits deployed onto your clients machines. Your clients will need InfoPath installed if you're going to be making use of InfoPath forms.
Given your questions are more Access related you should post your Access questions here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.aspx dg=microsoft.public.access.gettingstarted&lang=en&cr=US
And InfoPath questions here:

Hope that helps!

I believe you're talking about the Access runtime which is a component of the Microsoft Office Access Developer Extentions. The Microsoft Office Access Developer Extentions ship as part of VSTO.
I hope that answers your question.
Thanks.
