> 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).
