tis in tools-set security.

Don't forget it, Access passwords are very hard to break...

Use a real DB, SQLServer, Oracle, DB2, mySQL...

MS security (oxymoron) has very poor record (OS/Apps/Email!).

I haven't tried circumventing Access security, but, maybe like Word/Excel security... See:

Generally with Access databases if you load them into a newer version of the program they don't even ask for the password. It's not that great anyway.
