Nemony;

I have imported tables from MDE files into MDB files and used and modified
them.

Open the MDB, Click on File, Click on Get external data, Click on Import
(I'm using Access 2K, Your steps may vary but the important thing is Click
on Import.)

Select the MDE file containing the Reports You want.

Click on the OK button.

Andy

One cannot import reports from an MDE database file or into an MDE database
file. Only the tables and queries can be imported using the built-in
wizards. If you think that you are succeeding in importing reports from the
MDE database file using the Import Wizard, then you are using an MDB
database file that has been renamed with the MDE extension, but it is still
an MDB database file.

Reports in an MDE database file can be copied into an MDB database file
(sans the module) or the report's design can be altered, but not by using
the Wizards.

HTH.
