Automatically Generate SQL from existing MS Access table

Question

I've just designed a large database by playing around in MS Access. Now that I'm happy with the design, I need to be able to generate this same database (tables, relationships, etc.) from code.

Rather than hand-writing the SQL CREATE statements (which will be long, tedious, and error-prone process), I was wondering whether there was a shortcut. I seem to recall from my limited exposure to MySql that I was able to export an entire database as an SQL statement that can then be run in order to regenerate that database.

Do you know of a way to do this in MS Access, either through the GUI, or programmatically?

Answer 1

I just found and tried out this tool: jet-tool. It seems to work well for Access 2010.
