Lock Source Code

[Alex Lifeson]

I worked on a project where the developer had the Source Code locked /
password protected.

I do not mean a password to open the database.

You could open the database amd look at the tables, forms, etc. However,
when you wanted to look at the source code behind a form or a module, you
had to supply a password.

Does anybody know how to do this?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Ask the programmer for the password(!) - if you or the company you work for
paid a developer for work on the database you've every right to it.
Alternatively, google the vb password cracking software...

I did not mean to mislead you. I do not want to get the password.

I want to know how to lock the source code for my own applications.

With the code open
Select Tools
Select (name of database) Properties this is the next item under
Options
The Project Properties Popup is displayed
Select Protection Tab
Tick Lock for viewing
Enter Password
Confirm Password

For the password to work you must close the database

Do not forget your password.
