I found the answer on-line.  Relink the tables, then Access 'knows' the
password. Too simple.

Rocky, instead of putting a password on the backend, why not use Access User
level security?  If you use the same .mdw for the front and back end, when a
use logs into the FrontEnd with a valid Username and Password, Access will
automatically use those credentials on the backend.

Just a thought....

Dear List:

I put a password on the back end and prompt for it in a pop-up in the
opening form.

However, now when I click a command button to open another form I get an
'invalid password' error.  It doesn't look like the _Open event of the
called form is executing.  But the form is bound to tables linked to the
back end.  

Does the OpenForm need a password parameter?  Or what am I missing here?
