    How to hide my formulars from access by third party or user

    Hello,

    I have developed a system by access to keep track of stock. My problem is, how can i hide the formulars from anyone using the system. I would like a situation whereby a user can only access the front end/user interface but not the details on the backend or the database.



    Kind regards,

    Before converting the Front End into an accde file, be sure to copy the accdb file and keep it in a safe place! Better yet, copy it twice and keep it in two safe places! You'll need the accdb file if you ever need to modify it, in the future!
