I have created some password routines to protect certain forms from access
without a password.
This allows me to create some security for apps that will be used on diff
machines for users that will not have to learn the whole access security
process and me as well.
I would like to lockup my database by unchecking all of the options in the
tools/startup from. I know i can create custom menus, toolbars and command
bars and add a link to the access startup from there, but have had some
problems getting the popup bar to only be available for only 1 form that is
protected by my password routines. The one I created somehow became global
and even after removing it from all of the forms, access will still look for
it on report and show it as missing when you right click the report title
bar. Then it pops up the design option on a right click .
I did find some routines to disable the shift button at startup that are
pretty cool.
Anyway here is my question. Is it possible to call the access tools/startup
form with a procedure linked to a forms on load event and how. This way I
could lockup the db and only if you know the password be able to unlock it
via the startup form.
thanks
