    Angry Prevent edit or delete data or records from a table


    Hello all,

    It is possible to prevent editing or deleting data or records from a table in Access 2003, for example by introducing a password for these actions or a other solution ?
    I found in security parameters of Access 2003 the options to create new users and/or groups and to set the permissions for these. I have created a "limited" user and group and I seted for these only "Read" options for tables, queries, forms, but this user can edit/remove the records and data from tables.

    Any suggestion ?

    Thanks in advance !

    1. Don't let users work directly with tables and queries.

    2. Use code to handle when keyboard delete key is pressed.

    3. Set form AllowDeletions, AllowEdits properties to No and/or control Locked property to Yes.
