Stop password change

T

Tom

Is there any way to stop someone from changing the password on a db which is
using the system.mdw on each computer on which it opens?
Thanks

You can use Access "user level security" to stop a user opening the database
exclusively. And if they can not open the database exclusively, they will
not be able to change the database password. But, user-level security is far
more capable than the database password. Therefore, if you implemented
user-level security, you would normally *delete* the database password! So
this is a bit of a Catch-22 situation.

HTH,
TC
