Hi all,

I have a FE/BE database. The BE is password protected and the FE is .mde. As
everyone knows there are programs like 'passware' where can crack the access
password even VBA project password. How can i prevent "others" from insert
the tables in an other database or make a linked table? I dont want to use
..mdw file because i have distributed it to users where they are far a way
and they are not so good users what to do if i give it to them!!

Thanks in advanced,
Stelios
 
Hi Stelios,

If you do use Microsoft Access User Level security (e.g., mdw file) and
give the Admin account the necessary permissions (e.g., do not give
Administer permissions, no permission for new tables, remove Admin account
from the Admins Group, etc) and just distribute the MDB file to the users.
Being that they do not have the MDW file they will open the database with
the Admin account permissions.

I hope this helps! If you have additional questions on this topic, please
respond back to this posting.
