OK...I'm hoping someone will be kind enough to steer me in the right
direction with regard to setting up security on an Access 2000 database.

A couple of questions:

* Beyond setting up basic login security, to what level can I control who
can and can not see what? Forms? Reports? Records? Fields?

Are there any good online resources which might help me get ramped up on the
subject?

Thanks!

Yes to all.

Although the whitepaper is old, it contains information to help you
understand security.
