Data Base Protection

's Computer Specifications

I have designed a data base which i wish to distribute as demo copies. Is
there a simple way to restrict the number of records that can be entered?

Thanks for any help

Hi Roger,

Did you not see the replies from Doug and myself to your
question in the Access general questions newsgroup?

I think your problem with Jeff is misconceived. His site clearly says:
"The tools mentioned, to the best of our knowledge, do not reconstruct
any VBA code." I know one person says he can do it (on one of the
referenced sites), but personally, I am not convinced that a usable
result would be obtained in any but a small number of cases.

So Jeff is not linking to anything that an experienced developer could
not do himself, in 10 minutes work.

That is just information I have in the newsgroups.
I did not create any of that stuff if that's what you are thinking.

It seems to be relevant to the subject heading.

I was not necessarily referring to mde hacking, but also ULS hacking and
decryption hacking. What else? Since you ask, unavailability of code
reconstruction represents the limitation of the hacker and not some law of
nature.

I am merely providing the same service, without comment.

Yes, you can add check constraints to the tables to limit
the number of records, and user-level security to protect
the check constraints.
