The first thing that you might try is to hold down the shift key, and keep it
held down, while opening the database. Of course, I'm assuming that your
application was written entirely in Access, and not using a front-end created
with other software, such as Visual Basic.

If that doesn't work, then the developer may have disabled the shift key.
See the topic titled "By Pass Shift Key Code" on this page:

This should work, assuming the developer didn't go all the way, by securing
the AllowByPass key. More info. here:
