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.

Subject: [AccessD] backend application protection


I have a split (backend on server and front end on individuals PC) access
2000 application that I would like to protect the backend from having people
use the shift key bypass option to open the database in design mode and have
individuals play with the backend tables. 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
