Securing Application w ACCDE

[Jeff31592]

Trying to lock down an application by saving as ACCDE file. Saves OK but when you load application none of the controls work. I.e. button clicks do not launch "Open Form" or " Print Report" commands.

But in ACCDB format application works flawlessly.

When I tried on a different machine I get an error message that says too many Table IDs. Odd since I only have 3 forms, 3 tables and 3 reports. Lots of DoCmd's and switching between the 3 forms but not sure why this would create "too many Table IDs"?

hi

did you compile the code before making accde?


cheers

Ah, foolish me. I assumed that compile took place as part of the save as ACCDE. Why? Because that is what Microsoft has coded into the ACCDE button: "File will be compiled into an executable only file".

Thanks for setting me straight.
