Hiding Tables and Queries

Hello

I'm looking for a way to hid tables and/or queries so that they cannot be
viewed

by someone opening the database with a full version of MSAccess.

It has to appear as if there are no tables or queries in the database.

The Hidden property works OK until the Show Hidden check box in Options is
checked

so I would be looking for some more secured way of hiding the tables and/or
queries.

Thanks

Look at implementing Access security, in this way you can control what
people do when thy open your database.

I know how to create a front end and back end and link from FE to BE tables. BUT, how do I create an opening page to a database that doesn't even look like the typical Access database screen? It only shows one or two windows to click on. It very much limits the user to only what I want him/her to do. Thanks.
