Question lock down a database

[jlcastrejon]

From my previous question Pat Hartman gave me a solution and a good sugestion, that is LOCK DOWN THE DATABASE, the question now is ... HOW I CAN DO THAT!, somebody has an idea?
Thanks

I didn't see your earlier question, but a quick solution came to my mind is to save the database with a password. Don't share the password with others if you don't want them to open it.

Remove the password and save the database again to reverse it.

Hi apr,
Well the goal is that this database can be used by anybody of my colleagues but in read-only mode, they must be unable at all the time to see or edit the tables, so far the edit condition has been solved but i can't find how to avoid that they see the tables doesn't matter if they use the shift key while the database is open, do you have any sugestion about this?
