password bypass (1 Viewer)

[Paddy1980]

Hi

I have an issue where I have enabled the access security using the wizard which is fine as users use a shortcut which takes them through the password macro. But then if they quit > open access they can select the database through the 4 most recently opened which bypasses the password.

Any ideas?

P.S. My limitations are that I am a user with no Admin credentials on a large company network so have no way of fiddling with xp os options.

Thanks for any help!

It is not an OPS issue but an issue with the way that you implemented the security. From what you described, you did not remove the admin user from ypou new MDW file.

And are the forms really so different from each other? If not, I would suggest designing a single form and locking, hiding or disabling the components and functions that the lower-rank users should not be able to use, as appropriate
