[AccessD] Access security question

Talking of Access security, can someone tell me a good point of reference
for a novice in Access security to get started.  I have tinkered about with
it before for a very short while without much success.  Basically I think I
am looking for some sort of total idiots guide to Access Security....

Help/sample web pages etc greatly appreciated....

They can if the BE is not adequately secured, which means at the least that
the admin user is stripped of permissions and put in the users group rather
than the admins group.

Dear Group,

I've converted an application to Access 2000 for a client. This
application is running on single user workstations at about a half dozen
places around the U.S. The question my client has is this:  Lets say
that the tables in the BE have Access security invoked. If the FE/BE is
distributed in MDE format with Access Runtime, can a user with a
full-bore package of Access start the application, break out of it, and
wind up with all the tables available to him for editing, etc? This is
provided that the security is administered by the software so that the
actual security password is not known by the user. Only user names and
application passwords would be known.

Or is it even possible for the application to handle Access security
like this. That is, can Access security work without a user explicitly
typing in a password?

Thank you.
