I have built a data base that is used in several locations by 100+ people.
My interest wasn't to secure the data but to secure the layout of the data
base. I built an operator interface with buttons to take them to all the
necessary forms and reports, set everything as pop ups and start the data
base directely into the operator interface pop up. I have given them a
input form so they can modify thier report headers. I used a hidden spot on
one of the forms when clicked on, opens a pop up that when the correct
password is entered it allows me into the data base to modify or correct over
sights.This approach has worked extremely well with one draw back, everthing
is maximized so it is the only program available when it is open. I'm looking
for ways to allow them to minimize the whole Access program from the
operator interface and later restore it back to full screen. This will solve
having to
close the data base every time they need to look at something else on thier
computers. Any thoughts on my approach or maybe suggestions?
