I'm using access 2002. In my access front end, I have a switchboard with a
couple of menus. Is it possible to block one of the menu?
Thanks,

I would like to prevent external user from modifying the design of tables
but without disabling the reading of data of these tables.
I think about asking a password to any user in case of attempt of modying
design of one of the table of project file.

A fellow employee built a database and secured it at User Level.  He was the
administrator.  He has since left the company.  No one can get to the "guts"
of this database.  He obviously disabled the "shift" key because nothing
happens when we try it.  Any suggestions as to how I ...

As far as I can tell, Access group level security isn't particularly
effective against skilled hackers. The main reason for this is that the
encryption algorithm is supposed to be flawed. I'm not sure of this, but
I've read enough here to at least take the notion seriously. From ...

My problem seems quite simple!!!  I am using Access 97 and what I am trying
to do is determin if a database properties are set to ReadOnly. i.e. What I
want to do is a simple check when a datbase is opened and if the properties
are Read Only display a message and quit.

I want my database user shouldn’t be able to run any other XP applications
and only access database should open at startup. Please advise.

I am working on a data base for a family business, (ex Girlfriend) and one
of our friends who is in the same line of work wanted a copy and offered to
pay me for it.   This got me thinking about starting a small sideline
business selling copies of my database program.    

I have a split database.  I wrote a routine in the front end that adds two
tables in the back end, sets links to the front end and then creats a
relationship in the backend between the two tables.  After I do this, I no
longer have exclusive rights to the front end database.  I ...

I have inherited  a database which was created by an employee who is no
longer here.   The database opens, after a user signs in, with a form that
allows users to update  or view info.
I need to add some other users to the database but all the menus etc are

I have a need to set up an ini file, which I have done to link tables when
necessary to a different back end data source.  I'm having trouble when a
user that does not have full permission logs in the system hangs on linking
the first table and I must close access.  Is there a ...

My problem is this:
I've created an access database (2003) on a shared drive for certain people
to use, but who have different levels of permission. However, after I've
created my own administrator using the security wizard, EVERYTIME and

I've got a database created using SQL tables for data storage.  The data
entry form is the only thing users see when they open the database -- I've
removed all menus and toolbars, hidden the database window, put the main form
as the Display Form.  All users use the same ...

I would like to make the a field in the back-end of a database unchangeable
but keep the rest of the information modifiable.  To simplify I don't mind
people using the backend in any way they want I just want to set a field
"Company Name" so that it is hard coded by me and cannot ...

When we were on Access 2000 on Win2000, we had no problem sharing MS Access
on our company lan.  I would go in there to update info and make changes, and
my counterpart would do the same.  Only when she has a specific table or
query open, I was not allowed to edit it.  This is ...

I just deployed a new Access DB to multi users which requires each user to
logon.  One user, after logging on, gets the message "The table
'MSysAccessStorage' is already opened exclusively by another user, or it is
already open through the user interface and cannot be manipulated ...
