[AccessD] Stopping import of tables and queries from mde

Rocky,

  You can setup Access security so that the default mdw can be used, but no
one can get at the tables.  All your data access though must me done through
queries with the RWOP set to True (run with owner permissions).  However
with Access cracking tools in wide spread use, I doubt it's worth the
effort.

  Access is not the tool of choice if you really want to protect data.

Jim.

Dear List:

I have an mde which is going to be distributed as a consumer product
(Wise/Sagekey install).  However, I see that even though I thought I had the
mde all locked up, anyone with Access can still import the tables and
queries.

Is there a way to prevent that without causing problems in the product?
