Installation and Distribution

When you order UI Builder, you receive full access to the forms, tables, and modules that comprise the UI Builder product.  No installation is required on your machine, or your users (users must have one of the versions of Microsoft Access present on their PC, of course).  UI Builder becomes a part of your database application, which means no special steps are required to make your UI Builder-powered database available to other users.
