Thanks to the help of the mvp's I now have a really good database with
customer data. I would like to have a sub-switchboard with some options to
change data records, but only accessible by me ... the administrator. Is it
possible to put a password on the option on the main switchboard leading to
the sub-menu, or is there some way I can do it via a macro that only I can
activate ?

thanks

You can restrict access to various switchboard options based on login
or other information "globally" by modifying the switchboard Form
code and the table that controls the switchboard, but I think that you
would find it easier to create your own mini-switchboard form with
command buttons for each of the special forms that you want to use and
code in the OnOpen event to prompt for a password and exit if it is
not given. You then link it to the normal switchboard as usual, but
someone who hasn't got the password will not be able to access "your"
forms.
