I have an access database that I am working on that will be placed on our
organization's intranet that employees will be able to use. It is pretty
well protected - the last thing I think I need if possible is how to disable
the capability of loading it with the shift key depressed - this opens up the
whole structure to tampering. Is there any way to disable this?

Thanks in advance for your help.
 
Just to add a warning to Granny's good suggestion. Keep a copy of the
database for yourself which still has the shift key bypass enabled and/or be
prepared to run the procedure again and re-enable it, if you need to make
changes.

Better yet, you could use the excellent utility developed by Albert D.
Kallal. Search for "By Pass Shift Key Code" here:
