Query into a stand alone file

[Guest]

Hello...I have a Search query that requires user imput(for Keyword(s)) and I
am looking to find a way to make that a stand alone file so that it links to
the tables in the database. The database will be in the same folder as the
standalone file but will be hidden and password protected. Is there anyway
this can be done so that a shortcut could be put on the desktop of the user
for quick access to the "knowledge base"?

by stand alone file, do you mean another access db?
Your short cut would only open this db.

Actually I really would like the database to not open at all!
I would like to form to be an icon and when that is opened it prompts the
user for some sort of imput...keyword in this case and then once the user
submits that the results are then displayed on my form.

Hope this makes more sense!
