Hello,

I would like to know if it's possible to view or extract the code VBA from
db MDE.

Thanks in advance

There are third-party "cracks" available that claim to allow that, and I've
heard reports that some of them work; I have never examined any of them in
detail. One of the reasons for an MDE, as you no doubt know, was to make the
code inaccessible, as well as making it execute faster.  The creator of the
MDE was expected to keep an MDB for maintaining the code, and to create a
new MDE when it was time to distribute the database application again after
maintenance.
