An MDE file is an old compiled version of an MDB database. As such you cannot normally get at the code, so if you don't have the original MDB file you are in trouble! These people provide a commercial service to restore a MDB from a MDE. I have never needed to use them, so cannot comment on how reliable the result is.

or each form can have its own code also. So, you can open a form in design mode, and there will be code behind for forms, and even some reports can/might have code. In many cases you need to hold down the shift key during startup since startup code often runs to hide most of the access UI and thus you can't get into design mode without a lot of effort. So hold down shift key during startup to prevent the startup code from running. Once done, you should be able to see all objects in the nave pane (make sure to select all objects). – Albert D.

Open the MDB file.
Press Alt+F11 to open the VBE, the VBA code editor.
That's where your code is.
