Some advice would be appreciated. There seems to be a minefiled of papers, some conflicting, on Access security. I have a standalone access database which I need to protect. I do not want users getting access to anything other than whats on the switchboard. I have disabled the shift key bypass and all menus that can be disabled in the start up options. It seems secure to me now. Can it still be bypassed? Should I be setting passwords etc?

If the code errors the user could be taken into the VBA editor and they can monkey with your code.To prevent this you can compile your .mdb into an .mde. Some other things they can do is import you objects into other .mdb files, delete the .mdb, hum... I'm sure there are some other things that can go wrong but they slip my mind at the moment...
