access startup

I have my front end that is a MDE file and I made it so that the database
window does not show up at startup and I disabled the menus and I am not
using the Access special keys. I actually unchecked all of the boxes in the
startup window. Is there anyway that a user can get into the tables or make
any changes to the database or view forms/reports that are not on the
switchboard that starts up? Is there any way that anyone can get into these
things?

Yes, by holding down the shift key while openning the MDE.
Or try and press the F11 while the MDE running

The user can open the mde, and open in design view - tables, queries, macros.
He can view the rest of the bojects, forms, reports but he cant enter them
in design view.

The best solution is to install only run time in the FE, so the user can't
view the objects.
