In Access Help search for: About creating an application
This outlines things you can do to protect your application from public users. Assumed in that is you are going to distribute your application to users.
Search on Work with MDE files also. This makes your app more streamlined and optimizes its operation.
Search Office Developer Contents and you get a lot of information about royalty-free distribution licenses. They talk about how to distribute your application to users that do not have Access installed on their system.
Be warned, if you make too much money, Microsoft wil buy your program from you!

I don't believe that's legal, and at the same time I have to ask "why would you?" You can easily create a "database" in an XML document.
I'm not trying to be an ******, either. Try XML. It's fantastic, and the basics of it doesn't have a steep learning curve.
If you really want to make a database, I think if you go the comma deliminated text-file route I'm sure you'll get the same result as a .mdb database file. Don't quote me on that, I'm not a big time Access guy.

If you created the files yourself then there is no problem.
