    How to lock down my access program....

    Hello everyone,

    Can anyone advise me on how to lock down my access program. I want to hide the Table\Forms\Queries\Reports from the user.


    I want to have the program to load the form when the user double clicks on the access program.

    Thanks

    There are at least 10 things you'd probably do to lock down an Access db (to the extent that it can be). It's not really a subject that needs to be repeated here as you'd get some 90 million google hits but that's just my opinion. Each article you find would make and then explain each of those suggestions.

    For example, one of my articles on the subject: Improve Security 2 - Mendip Data Systems
