MS ACCESS + JAVA
Hello.I have created Ms access database and my aplication works well but i want to know if it is possible to use it on another PC too . I mean somehow replace the aplication with database.I have thought about making setup.exe and it would install the aplication with database.

Hello.
Do you mean you want to run the application on another machine? And the database will remain on first machine or will it be setup as well on another machine?
Please clarify the question once.
Syed.
Re: MS ACCESS + JAVA
Yes i would like to setup it on another machine.
Re: MS ACCESS + JAVA
Are you suggesting you want an Embedded database? Are you wishing to deploy this to a single machine or deploy it to 'n' number of machines? MSAccess is commercial and licensed software, so the client machine must have a valid license. Further, MSAccess is a Windows only, thus if you wish to deploy to any number of client machines doing so restricts your users to Windows only. If all is well, then just install the database along with your application (for instance, create a setup.exe or when your application starts check if DB exists and if not create it)
Re: MS ACCESS + JAVA
You can not create setup.exe in java. Executable jar can be created in java. And if everything is fine with your application then why are you using type 1 driver for DB. It is slowest and now there is type 4 driver to make db connections. Try to use them.
