Disable copying a database

[JJ]

Hi,

I have a compiled run time app. I was trying to figure out the best way to
keep the app from being copyied from one machine to another after I install
it. I will be deploying the app on diferent machines in different locations
and don't think the user security is the way I want to go. I was reading
about the registry keys, I'm not sure that this is the correct option (I
couldn't find very detailed information about the keys). Any assistance is
greatly appreciated.

You can use something like this:

I don't use this, but I do use the Explorer components from here in my
Access apps and they work very well.
