How can I prevent users from seeing my access tables, queries, and forms. I
want to have a menu that users select from without seeing all the stuff that
is "under the covers?"

Thanks,

Keith
 
Under "Tools" in the menu bar, click "Startup." At the top righ
where you see "Display Form/Page" choose the menu you want your user
to see, and just below that uncheck "Display database window." Onc
you do this you will need to hold down the Shift key when you ope
the program for modifications, and anyone who is familiar with Acces
special keys (the Shift key in this case) will also be able to d
this

There is a way to disable the special keys, but be certain you keep
copy with these keys NOT disabled or you will not be able to get bac
into your program to modify it, not easily anyway
