Copy problem

Can anyone help me with a small problem I have. On my reporting forms I
give the user the option viewing a report containing the filtered data they
require or to view the data in a subform (datasheet which doesn't allow
edits). For security reasons I do not want them to be able to copy most of
these datasheets and be able to paste into another document (Excel etc).
How do I stop them from doing this?

I know I could set up a replacement for the shortcut <ctrl> <c> but I really
don't want this applied for the whole database also it doesn't get around
the right click shortcut.

Any solutions?

Many thanks.

Instead of using a datasheet use textboxes to represent the fields and set
the form to continuous. Then set the following properties of the textboxes
as follows:
enabled - No
locked - Yes
