Packaged client application to ask for authentication

[hooi]

I've secured my application before splitting by creating a new Workgroup and then joining it. After splitting the database and having packaged my application with the XP Developer, the server (be) is now in located in the server. However, the client application doesn't ask for username/password when I run it in another PC. How can I force the client application to ask for user authentication before they can run the application?

Is the registry set up to call your mdw file when the user logs into the front-end mdb?

Hi GumbyD,

Thanks for your help. I've found a posting on the same subject and have realised I've not done what is required.
