Yeah - I would be a 2, but unless the client specifically insists on that form of security (it did happen once but 3 years ago) I use my own login / security procedure.

  6) I don't use the built in security functions of Access. I  Use MDE's and
  roll my own security depending on the requirements of the client.

  I'd like to take a poll regarding your knowledge of Access' built-in
  security. By security I do NOT mean the database properties, rather using
  workgroups / users to secure forms, tables, queries etc.

  Anyone interested in participating please choose one of the following:

  1) I am an Access security guru.  I can quickly and easily lock a database
  down so tight I can't even get back in.  No help / books needed.
  2) I am fluent with Access security.  I can get the job done but it
  definitely takes a few hours.  I probably won't need the help / books.
  3) I have done Access Security on at least one real paying project.  I would
  need help / books to do it again.
  4) I have heard about Access Security, read about it, managed to shoot a toe
  off, maybe played around with it, but I am confident I could get the job
  done.  Books / help definitly needed.
  5) Access has built in security?  What is this and where would I go to learn
  it?  Why haven't I ever seen these books / help?

  If you would please just select a number and reply I would appreciate it.

  As for myself, I must admit I rate a solid 4.  No client has ever been
  willing to pay for it and I have always had other things to learn / do so I
  just never did it (for real).
