You can lock up the back end using Access Security. It won't stop your user from opening the database, but it will stop them from changing anything. There is a sample application on my web site, www.goodhall.info/steve. Click on the "Useful Software" link and download the first item. All of the usual disclaimers apply.

Does anyone have a solution to this? Would I still be able to do design/work myself if needed? I found someone in the database tables today just cruising around out of curiosity Thanks in advance John _______________________________________________ AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com
