The fact that it doesn't work on other PCs suggests that you have secured it
properly.
What you need to do is also copy the mdw that you secured it with to the
other machines (or make it available to them on a server). Create a
shortcut to start the secure mdb. It's target would look like
"path to msaccess.exe" "path to mdb" /wrkgrp "path to mdw"
On your machine, you are likely joined by default to the secure mdw. You
can use the workgroup administrator (Start, Run, wrkgadm.exe) to rejoin the
default system.mdw (usually in the systems folder), and then use a shortcut
to start your secure mdb.
