[AccessD] Database Needs Password Protection

Mark:

Being able to link to it from another mdb is, I think, a deal breaker for
this guy. Also, he may need access to the back end himself.  I think I have
to go with the password protection - I just need to figure out a simple way
to know if a database has a password.

That being the case...create a form in the BE...open it on startup...form
does 2 things...
1.  turn off shift bypass.
2.  closed MDB
 
I accidentally locked myself out of an MDB with this once.
 
They can still link to it from any access database...but cannot open it
directly.
