Question close access when cancel password entry

[pavlos]

Hi all,

When we open a password protected access 2007 the small “password required” window pops up. If cancelled is chosen, instead of typing the password, the small window closes however access remains open. Is there a way to force access to close too?

Thanks,
Pavlos

Not from using that database password.

Thanks bob. So I have to set up my own password protection form, correct? Do you recomend the method of your example "LoginSample"?

Just remember they are two different things. The encrypted password on 2007 starting a database is much stronger than anything we put in later (but it still is hackable).

So, as long as you are okay with that, yes the sample stuff should be fine for you especially if you disable the bypass key and uncheck the Use Access Special Keys checkbox for the current database.
