How do I recompile an Access application from C#?

Tags: Microsoft, Access, 2003, C#, .NET
I've got a 3rd-party Access application that frequently flakes out and the vendors solution is to "recompile and then compact & repair" every morning.  I do not want my users to have to manually do this so I want to create a small app I can stick in their startup group that will automate this process.

I know how to compact & repair an Access DB from C#, so I can handle that, but I haven't been able to find anything on recompiling an Access app.  Some of the users have Access 2003 SP3 and some have 2007 SP1 so the solution either needs to work for both or I need to find two different solutions and a way to detect which is installed on the machine.  The access file itself is in the 2002-2003 format.

Any assistance is appreciated, thanks.
