secure new FE after import

[johnlute]

I opened my secured FE database file and then closed it while leaving
Access open. I created a new blank database and imported all of the FE
objects into it from the secured FE file that I had closed.

What are the steps that I need to take to secure the new FE file? I
thought the steps that I took would secure it however it didn't.

Thanks!

Thanks, Tom. So basically, you have to go through similar steps that
were taken to secure the database in the first place. I just figured
that being logged in as the owner and importing all objects from my
own secured database into a new one wouldn't require 30 pages of
nonsense.

Silly me.
