password and database

[jetsno]

Hi all
I hope someone can help I have searched the forums and cannot find the answer I am looking for. I am new to all this especially the coding part well here goes, I have a database project for my class (Education America Honolulu) I've created the database with the tables, reports, forms now what I need is a password not by using access' user level security, its got to be when someone opens the database a popup comes up asking for a username and password if entered ok then the switchboard opens and they can go from there. I don't know how to read or write any of the codes nor even understand them I need someone who can give it to me in "laymans" term. Am I supposed to create a table and form with the users names and passwords in them or what.
Thanks, jetsno

This post will tell you how to have a "hard coded" password. This means that the password will not reside in a table, but rather, you choose the passoword in code.
