MS Access Forum / Forms / April 2008Looking for a concept.
I am new to Access database coding. I finished my first database (on Office 2003) and wanted to give it to my company's employees. It is a survey with one form calling the survey (another form). What I am looking for is to have the form open without having the all database windows started. In another word I want to show the user only the form I created, This intro form will then call for the survet itself from another form. In another word I wanted to separate and somehow link the forms to the rest of the DB. Is this a concept that is possible with Access 2003? Can someone point me to the right direction? if there is a direction.. Thanks a lot. P.S. I can secure my DB by using the tools/Startup but I does not look clean. What I do with my confidential databases is set up a custom menubar. So the only way people can get around is a password protection that will not allow users to view any of the toolbar info. Now this is not perfect and most likely a 3rd grader with the slightest bit of knowledge can hack through it... but if you set a password protection on the VBE and look on the internet for codes that disable the opening of databases with the SHIFT key it can be pretty well protected and if someone could hack through that then that must be some serious information, haha. If you do this you can set up the surveys to open up when the database opens up, also when this form opens up it has a form load command that locks all the toolbars options users aren't allowed to use. Basically all they can see are the surveys they are allowed to enter, and a sign in option in case its an admin or you. > I am new to Access database coding.
