What I would like to know is the following:

1) When I convert a database to a MDE file can it be
converted back to a MDB.

2) Can users view the objects within the database?

3) Can users create another database and import the
objects within the MDE file.

Mainly I am concerned about setting something up and
having users trying to do changes and saving it to there
system.

The database is going to be part of a split database.

Any suggestions or comments would be useful.

No

Yes, but code-based objects (forms, report, modules) cannot be viewed in
design view

Yes, but only macros, queries, and tables.  Code-based objects cannot be
imported.
