I have a macro to check for a password before opening a form. (I know not the most secure but secure enough for my need)
I have it working with a number password, but I would like to use a text password. Right now it is "5234" and i want it to be, for example "Go Knights Go!"
What do I need to change in this macro to do that?

Thanks

Exactly that, check for "Go Knights Go!"

OK, Now I feel stupid. I tried that before and It would not work. Now it does. It kept saying it could not find the name "Go Knights Go!"
Now it works fine.
Thanks for helping

You probably did not surround the string with those double quotes (or single quotes) and so it thought you were talking about a variable, but I would have thought Access would think then it was just called Go, unless you surrounded it with [ and ]?
Never mind you have it working now.

Must have been something like that.
Thanks. Sometime having the obvious pointed out helps.
