Copy An Access Database

Hello Katrina,

Regarding a copy of your database. The easiest and safest way of creating a duplicate of your Access database, is to ensure you are not in Access, close the application down.
Locate the Database file you would like to copy in Windows Explorer and perform a regular Copy/Paste procedure.

Providing your database is not using linked files from external sources all content of the database will function exactly as the original.

I have never come across, or seen any forum postings of people having problems with a straight forward copy.

If this does not work, we'll need to look deeper into the structure and content of your original database.

I hope this resolves your question. If it has, please mark this question as resolved.

If you require further assistance, please reply to this post. Or perhaps you have another Microsoft Office question?

Have a great day.
Regards,

Mark
