One more question....

I just tried to use the updated programming from a user computer and found that it didn't work.  I realized that the user doesn't have Microsoft Access on their computer.

Must Access reside on the user computers?

The file was working fine on my computer so I updated our working Sesame file. 

I then tried the programming from a user computer and it didn't work.  I realized that the user computer does not have Microsoft Access installed.

Must the user have Access installed on their computer for the programming to work?

Hello Paul,

Yes the client system must have Access installed on it in order for the script file to work.

Another option is to have the Microsoft Access Database Engine installed on the client. This can be downloaded from, http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=23734

Download and then install it and it should now work for you. I was able to use it on one of my systems to access a .accdb file with only having Access 2003 installed.

OK, got it working. 

The problem was that I didn't have the .wsf file on the users c:drive.  Once I added that file, everything works fine. 

I've added it to other users computers and it works without the download.

Thanks for all your help!
